Yesterday, the sun reminded us that although the current peak
of its solar cycle has been a little sub-par, it is still capable of
mustering the magnetic energy to erupt with its most powerful class of
solar flare.
Astronomers have announced the detection of a Thorne-Żytkow
object -- a neutron star inside a red supergiant -- potentially putting a
weird hybrid star on the stellar map as a very real phenomenon.
