We've Never Seen a Comet Do This

Between Jupiter and Neptune lurks Centaur 29P, an icy comet that won't stop exploding. Its wild cryovolcanic outbursts can make it flare 300 times brighter in a matter of hours, but the reason for these random eruptions has long been a mystery. Now, recent discoveries from the James Webb Telescope have provided a clue to the secret trigger powering the chaos. Join us as we investigate the strange case of the solar system's most explosive comet.
