This Star Might Be Hiding Undiscovered Elements - Przybylski’s Star

Przybylski's Star, studied since the 1960s, remains a mystery due to its unusual composition. Initial spectroscopy showed a lack of iron and an abundance of lanthanides, leading to its classification as an A-type peculiar star. The star also contains short-lived isotopes like promethium and plutonium, sparking various hypotheses, including supernova origins, neutron star reactions, or even undiscovered super heavy elements. Further research is needed to clarify these findings and potentially discover new elements.
