Eta Carinae is perhaps the most massive and luminous star in our galaxy, and is also one of the most enigmatic. Despite over a century and a half of study since an enormous eruption which expelled several solar masses of material into interstellar space, and which guaranteed its infamy, astronomers have struggled to understand its true nature. With a key event in the cycle of this star expected during the summer of 2003, an unprecedented programme of observations has been organized by astronomers around the world. Eta Carinae may at last be about to reveal some of its most fundamental secrets.
