Things in the Universe that make you go Hmmmm!

Astronomers spot a new object. It appears to be a star as big as our solar system emitting 100 billion times more energy than any known star can physically produce?

Is this a "black hole star" MIT astronomers are asking .... Scientists indicate the most likely explanation for this strange new red dot is that it is a mashup of a black hole and a star. https://phys.org/news/2026-08-black-hole-star-astronomers-brand.html
