"possible SN", could also be classical nova or something else There are three suggestions and doubtful if SN at all or classical nova or something else. "suggested SN", candidate remnant could be G11.2-0.3. Some researchers have suggested it was a comet, not a supernova. The remnant is probably RCW 86, some 8200 ly distant, making it comparable to SN 1572. Surviving description sketchy modern estimates of maximum apparent magnitude vary from +4 to −8. In most entries, the year when the supernova was seen is part of the designation (1st column).
