Existence, Uniqueness & Bifurcations · Superchallenge problem

For a constant cc, consider y′=y2+ct2y' = y^2 + \dfrac{c}{t^2} on t≥1t \ge 1. There is a critical value c∗c^* such that some solution exists on all of [1,∞)[1, \infty) when c≤c∗c \le c^*, while every solution blows up at a finite time when c>c∗c > c^*. Find c∗c^*.
