Сверхновая Тихо Браге
11 ноября 1572 года датский астроном Тихо Браге возвращаясь домой из химической лаборатории, заметил в созвездии Кассиопеи необычайно яркую звезду, которой раньше не было. Он сразу понял, что это не планета, и бросился измерять её координаты. Звезда сияла на небе ещё 17 месяцев; вначале она была видна даже днём, но постепенно её блеск тускнел. В современной терминологии, это была первая за 500 лет вспышка сверхновой в нашей Галактике.
On November 11, 1572 a Danish astronomer Tikho Brahe was going back home from chemical laboratory and noticed an extraordinary bright star in constellation of Cassiopeia which wasn't earlier there. He understood at once that it was not a planet, and rushed to measure its coordinates. The star shone in the sky for 17 more months; in the beginning it was visible even in the afternoon, but gradually its gloss grew dim. In modern terminology, it was the first #supernova for 500 years in our Galaxy.
