A monster star merger, each star 30 times larger than the Earth's sun, could not only produce a stellar fireworks show, but it could also clue scientists in to how the first stars were formed, according to Inquistr.

The two stars are called MY Camelopardalis (but their friends call them MY Cam). They were first seen 13,000 light years from Earth about a decade ago. They share a name because, initially, scientists thought they were seeing one star, due to the stars' close orbit to each other.

This week, Spanish astronomers published new information about MY Cam in the scientific journal Astronomy & Astrophysics. MY Cam is not one, but two stars, and collision seems unavoidable, according to Inquistr.

The two stars are really just "child stars" - a mere two million years old. Other stars in the galaxy are thought to have formed by collisions like the one expected by MY Cam, so this is science's best chance of watching it in action.

Javier Lorenzo of the University of Alicante and his team reported that the two blue - and very hot - stars take a little more than a day to orbit each other at their current speed of 621,000 miles per hour.

The atmospheres of the stars are already touching, Lorenzo's team reported.

So, what will happen when these stars collide and form a monster star 60 times as big as our sun? No one really knows, but astronomers say it is going to happen soon.
