COSMIC MESSAGE
V838 Monocerotis, 8,000 light-years away, is a mysterious variable star that began an outburst in January. Initially thought to be a classical nova, astronomers realized it was something new. Observations indicate that the erupting star transformed from a small, under-luminous star over months.
