SPICY 97589 exhibits repeating outbursts.
Astronomers have detected repeating outbursts from a young stellar object (YSO) known as SPICY 97589, shedding more light on the nature of this YSO. SPICY 97589 is a member of a small cluster of about 30 candidate YSOs, designated G38.3-0.9. The identified brightening events of SPICY 97589 are most likely accretion outbursts, typical of EX Lup-type objects. However, more spectroscopic observations of this star are required in order to confirm this hypothesis.
