It seems that a 140 years old supernova remnant has been found. Cool.

Re: Most recent galactic supernova
Interesting article! I like the image too... you can actually see the "bubble" defined in the composite image, my favorite being this one: http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2008/g19/g19_xray_radio_nir.jpg This would make a nice 3D addon! *hint jll*

Re: Most recent galactic supernova
It would be interesting to make/animate a supernova for celestia athpugh i imagine it might be rather complicated, and im not sure if independent luminesent objects besides stars can be created.

Do Beginning and ending declarations work for stars?
Re: Most recent galactic supernova
Another question is whether supernovae should be represented as stars or as DSOs.
