Tycho's Supernova Remnant

APOD: 2009 March 17 - Tycho's Supernova Remnant

Another great shot from NASA's "Astronomy Picture of the Day". This one is a multi-wavelength colorized shot of Tycho's famous supernova, although this is the first time I realized it was probably a 1a "standard candle" supernova.

Beautiful.
