T Coronae Borealis is home to a white dwarf, a dense, burnt-out star siphoning material from its companion star.
Every 80 years or so , the white dwarf manages to accumulate enough mass to trigger a nuclear explosion, sparking an outburst that boosts its typically dim magnitude of 10 to a bright 2.0 .
Astronomers' best predictions suggested T CrB was poised to ignite by September .
Yet, the elusive system continues to show signs that an outburst is still imminent.
Astronomers and eager stargazers alike are watching it closely, poised to both marvel at and catalog its eruption into the brilliant nova it promises to become.
