Sometime between now and September, if you look to the left-hand side of the Northern Crown, what will look like a new star will shine for five days or so.
Pretty cool if you own a telescope and are into astronomy, but not exactly solar flare levels of hype here. Don't wake up your SO and drag them out onto the lawn at 2am to show them this Nova.
went outside for 15 minutes. no lights. eh. I just try to wrap my head around the scale of space. should invest in some automatic scope. they have ones you set on the roof and observe from the desktop. few thousand $$ installed
