SDSS J102915+172927: A Star That Should Not Exist

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

SDSS J102915+172927 is a star that challenges our understanding of early star formation. It has surprisingly few heavy elements, which are usually present in stars born after the universe's first generation. This suggests it might be a very old star, formed from nearly pristine hydrogen and helium, which makes it a rare find.
