Phoenix Rising: Behemoth Star WOH G64 Remains a Red Supergiant
New spectroscopic analysis of the behemoth star WOH G64 in the Large Magellanic Cloud finds it remains a red supergiant and not a yellow hypergiant or imminent supernova as previously thought. Titanium oxide detected in its atmosphere and a possible binary companion suggest gas is being redistributed rather than the star dying soon, painting a picture of a phoenix-like resurgence rather than an explosive end.
