RE: Scientists Have Found One Of The Oldest Stars In The Milky Way

Nice article! However, I believe that you meant that J0815+4729 actually contains 15% more carbon than our sun!

I happen to have written a similar article on Sunday explaining how we can estimate J0815+4729's age by knowing its composition.
