SN2023ixf a Supernova in Galaxy M101
On May 19 2023 a bright Supernova showed up in the M101, the "Pinwheel Galaxy". In the night of May 21 I attempted to image it. Weather conditions were comparably poor due to some thin clouds, but I was able to capture a reasonable picture of M101 showing the supernova. Using 2022 data I created a comparison image for the galaxy before the Supernova explosion. With that it is possible to create a little animation of "before" and "after" the explosion.
