Re: Reach For The Stars
ok, let me get is strait:
sgr* = super nova remnant VERY CLOSE to the center of the milky way galaxy
Cas A* = also supernova remnant
Tyco's SNR = doesn't need * because SuperNova Remnant is already in its name...
is this right????
thnx
are there any other facts I might need 2 know about sgr*????

Re: Reach For The Stars
SgrA* is the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. It is not a supernova remnant.
