On this day in the year 1006, a "new star" appeared in the sky. SN1006 was so bright it could be seen during the the day for several weeks, and was documented by observers from Europe and Africa to the Far East, and was possibly recorded in North American petroglyphs ⬇️1/2
SN1006 was a supernova 7,200 light-years from Earth, and is thought to have shined 16 times the brightness of Venus. The image above is the remnant of this event, thought to be a supernova of Type 1a caused by two white dwarves combining. 2/2 ⬇️Links
