Scientists have found a nearby star that, very soon, could explode into a supernova, and which is close enough that the explosion would wipe out all life on Earth.
Of course, in this context, “very soon” is estimated at around 100 million years, by which time it may be far enough away to be safe.
Don’t start digging that bomb shelter yet …
