Hubble Telescope Discovers ‘Zombie Star’ Formed from Violent Stellar Merger:

Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have discovered a rare ultra-massive white dwarf, designated WD 0525+526, located approximately 130 light-years from Earth. Nicknamed a ‘zombie star’, this white dwarf was created through the explosive merger of two stars. Despite being roughly the size of Earth, it contains 20% more mass than the Sun, making it one of the most massive white dwarfs recorded.
