It was discovered just 130 days before exploding using two telescopes in Hawaii, allowing a team of experts to investigate it before it exploded in a massive supernova.

“This is a breakthrough in our understanding of what massive stars do moments before they die,” said Dr. Wynn Jacobson-Galán, the study’s lead author.
