The predicted impending Nova from T Coronae Borealis! An interview with Dr David Zurek

  • Summary

  • Today I interview a researcher from the American Museum of Natural History, my uncle, Dr David Zurek about Novea. Yes the same institution where the famous Neil deGrasse Tyson resides.

    What brought this episode about? Well ~3000 light years away from Earth, a white dwarf star named T Coronae Borealis known to astronomers simply as “T CrB,” is about to have a brief but powerful runaway nuclear reaction! Only issue is it's late! Join Whimsical Wavelengths and the discussion of two Dr Zurek's with respect to the Hubble Space Telescope, Novea (the correct plural) and runaway nuclear reactions!

    Dr David Zurek's stated research intrests on American Museum of Natural History's website states: Photometric studies of stellar populations; variable stars; cataclysmic binaries; nova shells
