Answer : 3. "Star"
Explanation :
The "Blaze Star" (T Coronae Borealis) will explode for the first time since 1946 in a rare astronomical event visible to the naked eye. Located 3,000 light-years away in the Corona Borealis constellation, Blaze Star is a recurring nova, brightening about every 80 years. This binary star system comprises a white dwarf and a red giant.
