radio and X-rays have found the most recent supernova remnant observed
in our galaxy, located about 26,000 light-years from here. It's the
youngest, most energetic supernova we know and could shed light on just
exactly how the stardust we're made of -- heavier elements and all --
gets created. The finding also lends some support to astronomers'
calculations that there should be about three supernovae in our galaxy
per century, although they still need to find dozens more similar
supernova remnants to confirm their suspicions.</STRONG></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/05/liveblog-nasa-a.html"><STRONG>All-in-all, it was an interesting moment for astronomy, despite the racist, conspiracy-theorists who crashed the science teleparty and derailed the conversation. <BR /> </STRONG></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/05/liveblog-nasa-a.html"><P>
