If somebody ever writes an article about that object then let's have a link. Until then, there is no point. Tag: Undo

(Personally, I'd be happy to see the whole section deleted because micrometers are no longer used for research, but that was not done in the edit which looks quite like vandalism.) Tag: Undo

- 21:5121:51, 30 May 2023 diff hist +105 Local Group Attempted to tidy up the "Future" section, recently added in a rather scrappy edit. I've deleted the rather clumsy nicknames of Milkomeda and Milkdromeda.
- 20:2720:27, 30 May 2023 diff hist −5 SN 2023ixf Dropped the name "Big Dipper" from the Constellation field because Ursa Major is the constellation, while the Big Dipper is an asterism; changed the name of the galaxy of the 2014 supernova from "Cigar Galaxy (M82)" to "M82 (Cigar Galaxy)" to give more prominence to a formal name which matches the name of the Wikipedia article

- 19:3519:35, 24 May 2023 diff hist −199 SN 2023ixf Added a clarification that the progenitor's estimated absolute magnitude is in the near-infrared. This complicates interpreting how bright it would appear at a distance of 10pc. The reference at The Astronomer's Telegram does not specify whether this is on the "Vega" system or is an AB magnitude. Giving an estimate of the visual magnitude would require using a colour index. Those estimates have therefore been deleted.
