I love reading about Przybylski's star, one of the most bizarre objects in the sky, but every blog post about it derails into a pointless discussion of how to say its name. The answer: don't, unless you're Polish. And stop asking us. Just read it silently.https://sites.psu.edu/astrowright/2017/03/15/przybylskis-star-i-whats-that/ …

This is still not as great as Russian, where they have a special verb that means "to be unable to pronounce the letter R", and that verb has an R in it.

Anyway, the star is awesome. One of the few things you can point at in the sky and not have "it's aliens" be a ridiculous explanation.
