The Brightest Supernova in My Life

Messier 82 and SN2014J - January 31, 2014
Messier 82 and SN2014J – January 31, 2014

I saw SN2014J in M82 on Korean New Year night.

It is very surprise event to me, since I’ve never seen bright supernova.

Already I saw some supernovas in 2011. (M51, M101, NGC2655)

But that is more dark than this one.

I feel some futility.. because it is too easy to observing πŸ™‚

I drew a sketch with 10″ dob, black paper and white pastel & jelly pen.

And I compared with my previous M82 sketch.

It is so interesting, I want to share everyone!

  1. Wonderful details in your sketches, that is exciting to be able to have something to compare it to. I always enjoy your sketches. Cindy

  2. It is always nice to see these before and after supernova sketches.
    Excellent.

  3. In my life too…
    Nice sketch, good idea to compare with old sketch, it’s a good argument to promote sketching and archiving.
