The stellar stream is faintly visible in the image.

Supernova SN 2020jfo was discovered on May 6, 2020, by the Zwicky Transient Facility. It was the eighth supernova recorded in this galaxy since observations began in 1926. It was a type II event, meaning it resulted from the collapse of the core of a supergiant star.

 

Taken with ED127mm f/9 + Canon EOS 4000D. FoV cropped in the common area between sessions. 30-second shots at 3200 ISO.
