The European Space Agency (ESA) has unveiled a captivating glimpse of the enigmatic Mira HM Sge star system, located 3,400 light-years away. This symbiotic binary system consists of a red giant star and its white dwarf companion, engaging in a ‘cosmic dance of fire and ice.’ The red giant releases material that falls onto the white dwarf, illuminating it with intense brightness. This system has baffled astronomers due to its sustained nova-like outburst since 1975. Observations from Hubble and SOFIA telescopes have provided insights into this enigmatic system, revealing scorching temperatures around the white dwarf and a swirling disk of material. The Hubble data also highlights the presence of water flowing at incredible speeds, further fueling the intrigue surrounding Mira HM Sge.
