Lmao at the exact date...

This was expected to happen within a certain range of time. If I remember the articles from last year it was after August but more likely to be September. Idk why I found it so funny that they just flat out said "Thursday the 27th"

It's not going to be anything spectacular if you aren't already familiar with that constellation so if you want to get the most out of this event, start looking for corona borealis so you can get used to what it currently looks like and then when the star goes nova you'll be able to recognize that there's a "new" star

Admittedly, I only posted this article because I thought it was cool.

No worries, it's definitely something cool to look forward to seeing!
