Chinese astrologers announced the opening of the brightest supernovas in the Universe. The flare, classified as the strongest, most experts saw in the forest system of 14 telescopes ASAS-SN (All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae) in the southern constellation called Indian.

As the us newspaper reports NewScientist, the brightest star in the Universe, above ASASSN-15lh, was found about a month ago the system ASAS-SN, which in automatic mode, scouring the skies in search of a supernova. Later astrologers from the Beijing Institute watched ASASSN-15lh with several other telescopes, determining the distance to and flash brightness.

Their data scientists from the Institute of astronomy and astrophysics at Peking Institute has transferred to NASA, and with the help of orbiting Swift Observatory open was approved. In the space Agency are convinced that the supernova was discovered after 9 days after it reaches its maximum brightness. With all that light from a celestial body went to the Ground more than 2.8 billion years.

Astrologers say that a new star is 100 times brighter than ordinary supernovae and several times brighter all fashionable Hypernova. Therefore, ASASSN-15lh can be considered the brightest star in our Universe. However, to calculate the true nature of its light, it may take about 100 days. Given the opinion of many researchers, often Hypernova stars as the research behind them has been the object of a different nature - as a rule the stars, caught in a dangerous proximity to black holes and torn them.
