Those early characteristics lead Williams to speculate that 1987A "may have had an antecedent star that was not that massive, as supernovas go." By comparing the supernova's position with older photographs of the Large Magellanic Cloud, many astronomers at first identified a hot blue supergiant star, called SK-69 202, as the probable progenitor of 1987A. But that conclusion troubled everyone; theory holds that a star with these characteristics is too young to expire in a final explosion. Two weeks ago, as the initial ultraviolet radiation from the blast began to die down, the astronomers breathed a collective sigh...
Astronomers think 1987A is probably a Type II. But a star called SK 202-69, visible in older photographs in almost exactly the supernova's position and therefore possibly the star that exploded, is a blue supergiant, rather than the red supergiant predicted by theory. Astronomers are still looking for evidence of a previously undetected red supergiant in the same area. "There's a lot of confusion," says Arnett. "We have had so little data on supernovae. We have pieces of the puzzle, but they don't all fit together the same...
