And this all depends on the amount of material. It's drawing off another star. That's a two star system, binary star system, hence the name. And it's a white dwarf, and then there's another red giant star next to it. And the red giant star, it's expanding. And it's going through its death throes. And as it does so, its atmosphere expands and contracts and expands. And this little dense white dwarf that's nearby just has enough gravitational effect to be able to pull some of this material off the outer shell of the star towards it. And this material comes swooping in and swirls around on the star. It comes down onto its surface. And after it accumulates enough of this, it ignites. It goes into a thermal nuclear ignition, and it flares up. And so this is what happens with this nova. The star will suddenly brighten and should be able to see it make an eye. So the predictions are now that it may not be happening until 2027. But get yourself a star map. Go outside from time to time and just take a look up. What do you need binoculars for? Take a look up at, find where the coronal borealis is. Just take a look up there and see if you can see it according to what they have laid out on a star map. Beep.
