The irony of the reporting is cool, actually.
The supernova is new, to us. It happened 12 million years ago, if indeed, it is located 12 million light years away.
Amazing.

Links listed report SN at visual mag 11.7.

May want to take a change of underwear too. If my math is correct, M82 is over 70 quintillion miles away. The fastest thing we’ve ever made travels at 25 miles per second. That works out to about 788 million miles in a year. So that’s 89,280,000 years to M82 at our best speed.
Maybe we should start with Proxima Centauri, our closest star. It’s only 31,568 years away.
