SN 2020jfo


SN 2020jfo was a type II supernova in the Messier 61 galaxy, first observed on 6 May 2020 with an apparent magnitude of 16.01. It was one of the first supernovae for which independent, multi-instrument data was collected before, during, and after the explosion. Large astronomical surveys like Transiting [Exoplanet Survey Satellite] and Pan-STARRS have played a role in data collection before and after these events.
