There is this star, discovered in 1961 by Antoni Przybylski, that defies classification. The star is cataloged as HD 101065, or simply called Przybylski's Star. The star has a peculiar spectrum that does not fit into the standard framework for stellar classification. Hence, the AP classification as they are chemically peculiar stars.

What's weird is that Przybylski's Star is virtually like no other star.

I could write a lengthy explanation but I think a video is more entertaining, so without further adieu...
