What's advanced in your terms?
Just curious, how did you find out about this? News? Or just random Wiki article searching? It's very interesting. Technology still astounds me with the things that can be accomplished with its help.

These are one of those things where we think we know a lot when we don't. In space exploration anyway.
It was on the news yesterday.

I was skimming over news bulletins and I found the name of the star. I wiki'ed it and learnt more.

I wanted to find out more about the star, but they didn't release the name on my news and I was too lazy to look for it. Good find.
