First ever: a planet making its star explode! 💥 HIP 67522 b orbits so close to its young, energetic star that it’s triggering massive flares — 100× stronger than expected. Each blast strips away a bit of its fluffy atmosphere, giving astronomers a rare front-row seat to this cosmic light show. 📹 @europeanspaceagency 🖥️ Janine Fohlmeister (@aip_potsdam)
