The Zwicky Transient facility unveiled yet another extremely rare cosmic event! We witnessed a star being tidally disrupted and consumed by a supermassive black hole, which launched a luminous beam of light and material towards Earth about 8.5 billion years ago. The transient source was named AT2022cmc.
