"hypervelocity" stars are extremely rare, but we've just spotted a particularly special example.
A star named CWISE J124909+362116.0 (J1249+36 for short) not only exceeds the galactic escape with a velocity at around 600 kilometers (373 miles) per second.. First spotted by citizen namely, how did it get so breathtakingly fast?
