GREENBELT, Md., May 3 (UPI) -- NASA says the Hubble telescope has captured a sharp image of the wispy red remains of a star similar to our sun that exploded as a supernova 150,000 years ago.
Reduced to just a web-like gaseous shell, the object known as SNR B0519-69.0 -- or SNR 0519 for short -- exploded about 150,000 years ago but the first light from the explosion only reached Earth about 600 years ago, the space agency said.
