A star is a massive luminous spheroid astronomical object made of plasma that is held together by its own gravity.Stars exhibit great diversity in their properties (such as mass, volume, velocity, stage in stellar evolution, and distance from Earth) and some of the outliers are so disproportionate in comparison with the general population that they are considered extreme.
No, actually -- even NASA is calling this star the "loneliest" in the universe. "The unusual object, called CX330, was first detected as a source of X-ray light in 2009," according to a NASA news ...

The most powerful telescope to be launched into space has made history by detecting a record number of new stars in a distant galaxy. NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, history's largest and most ...
Under ideal conditions, onlookers can count as many as 100 shooting stars per hour, but hourly rates will not be quite as high this year as a nearly full moon will shine bright on the night of Aug ...
The first list shows a few of the known stars with an estimated luminosity of 1 million L ☉ or greater, including the stars in open cluster, OB association and H II region. The majority of stars thought to be more than 1 million L ☉ are shown, but the list is incomplete. The second list gives some notable stars for the purpose of comparison.
