Supernova in Pinwheel Galaxy

[N1CK06]

Hi IIS, just read this article and thought I'd share:

Has anyone heard about this supernova? I cannot seem to find any high resolution images of this supernova, I'd really love to have a look at some!!

Cheers,
Nick

Hi Nick, Just Google Supernova in M101 and you will find heaps.
Also Try Here (http://www.rochesterastronomy.org/snimages/) for images and information of Supernovae.
Cheers :thumbsup:

Thanks Ron!

It's interesting that the article said NASA has released some images two days ago. I couldn't find any on the NASA website itself. Maybe they'll put some up soon, who knows!
