Image title
Supernova 1987A 4 years after - Supernova 1987A after 4 years - Image obtained with Siding Spring's 3.9m telescope. Supernova 1987A appeared in the constellation of Dorado on February 23, 1987. 4 years later the star appears as a red dot and pulls. The elongated red 'star' marks the site of supernova 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The two blue stars that bracket the glowing ember are almost certainly in the LMC as well, but not necessarily near the supernova. They initially confused the issue of which star had exploded. The red image is the expanding remnant of a massive star and can be seen to be slightly elongated in this picture. The elongation is in the same direction as the well - known Hubble Space Telescope picture of the ellipse around the supernova and both represent the expanding shock wave from the supernova interacting with material that was ejected from the star before it exploded
