Fastest-rotating star spins at 600 kilometres per second at the equator!

WASHINGTON: Scientists have for the first time discovered the fastest-rotating massive star, which spins at the speed of 600 kilometers per second at the equator and could be the progenitor of some of the brightest explosions in the universe: gamma-ray bursts.

The rotational velocity is so high that the star is nearly tearing apart due to centrifugal forces.

The observations were made at the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, at the Paranal Observatory in Chile, as part of a survey of the heaviest and brightest stars in a region called the Tarantula Nebula.
