I know. I saw that one their site. But it is just an artist’s illustration.

“I saw that one ON their site.”
I found a similar website, and it had the photo I posted. I THINK it’s the supernova from this article, but I could be wrong. It could just be a photo of A supernova. The photo had no ‘credit or label’ info on the website where it was posted with the similar article.

OK, I went back and did some digging. The photo I posted is not of THIS supernova.
Here is a location map and some radiotelescope imaging of the actual supernova
NAME: ASASSN-15lh
Detected June of 2015
