Three-dimensional models of astronomical objects can be ridiculously complex. They can range from black holes that light doesn't even escape to the literal size of the Universe and everything in between.
But not every object has received the attention needed to develop a complete model of it, but we can officially add another highly complex model to our lists., a red hypergiant that is quite possibly the largest star in the Milky Way. And they're going to use that model to predict how it will die.
The going theory now is that they are more likely to collapse into a black hole, which is much harder to observe directly than the initially suggested supernovae. Its sheer size and proximity to our Solar System make it an excellent observational candidate. With good observational data, astronomers can see the breathtaking complexity of what the star's surface actually looks like.
That material, including sulfur dioxide, silicon dioxide, and sodium chloride, would allow them to detect the speed at which it moves, rather than just the static presence of other ejecta, such as dust.To do so, they had to align all 48 dishes of ALMA and collect over a terabyte of data to get the correct information.
