  Are supernovas even that huge relative to their galaxy?

  The orange blob to the top left is a foreground star from our galaxy.
  The green spot could also be a foreground star or an optical artifact.

  Ahh! That little green blob has been bothering me all day. I've been querying them as green peas, but I wasn't really sure what a green pea was... Thanks ElisabethB.
