    Rare star explosion expected to be 'once-in-a-lifetime viewing opportunity,' NASA officials say
    Nova explosion to occur in 2024; astronomers say it happens every 80 years
    Another special cosmic event is to occur this year, and it could be a "once-in-a-lifetime viewing opportunity," according to NASA.
    It’s a nova explosion located in a star system 3,000 light years away from Earth and astronomers predict it will be visible to the "unaided eye" sometime in 2024.
    "Unfortunately, we don't know the timing of this as well as we know the eclipse," Bill Cooke, lead for NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office (MEO) at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, told Fox News Digital.
    "But when it happens, it'll be something you'll remember."
