CNN —Woolly mammoths, giant sloths and saber-toothed cats were a fact of life for early humans. Fantastic creaturesScientists compared the mummified saber-toothed baby cat (top) with a modern lion cub (bottom). courtesy Prof. Alexey V. LopatinPaleontologists excavating in Russia’s Yakutia region uncovered the first known mummy of a saber-toothed cat. The well-preserved remains, uncovered in Siberian permafrost, are nearly intact, including surprisingly soft fur and even the “toe beans” — as cat lovers call feline footpads — on its front paws. The red supergiant star, called WOH G64, is about 160,000 light-years from Earth in the Large Magellanic Cloud, which orbits the Milky Way.

☆ First close-up image of a star beyond our galaxy may reveal impending supernova

The star, known as WOH G64, is 160,000 light-years from Earth in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small neighboring galaxy that orbits the Milky Way. Van Loon has observed WOH G64 since the 1990s and studied it as a student at the European Southern Observatory. The Hubble Space Telescope soon revealed it had indeed been a red supergiant in the past, perhaps 20,000 years before the explosion. “If this is what we are seeing (WOH G64) doing, then a spectacle awaits us soon,” van Loon said. It’s nowhere near as bright or variable as WOH G64, van Loon said, and only experienced a brief hiccup compared with what WOH G64 is undergoing.
