NASA, Global Astronomers Await Rare Nova Explosion - NASA
Around the world, professional and amateur astronomers alike are closely watching T Coronae Borealis – the “Blaze Star,” a binary system some 3,000 light-years from Earth – waiting for an impending nova explosion event so bright it will be visible on Earth with the naked eye.

Going to be a NOVA event this summer which should be easily visible from Earth... even without a big telescope.
No 'predicted' date yet. But likely to happen this summer.
