Super nova SN 2004bh visible

• by williamaskew

  I looked up the date this image SDSS took this 15/04/2004 and SN 2004bh in UGC 5161 was discovered 09/04/2004. So the white star to the right of the nucleus just below the dust lane is the supernova 9 days after discovery.

  supernova is the blue star in another image too, in http://talk.galaxyzoo.org/#/subjects/AGZ0002kpc

  

  There was a spectrum taken by accident, but it was too late after the supernova had faded, the spectrum is of a slightly active galaxy.
