Suzaku found another fossil fireball in the supernova remnant W49B. It detected X-rays produced when heavily ionized iron atoms recapture an electron. This view combines infrared images from the ground (red,green) with X-rays data from Nasa's Chandra X-Ray Observatory (blue).
Suzaku detected X-rays from fully ionized silicon and sulfur - which indicates temperatures of 17 million celsius
Daily Mail on 1 January 2010
The glowing embers left behind by one of the most powerful type of explosions in the Universe have been revealed for the first time.
Remnants from giant fireballs unleashed by a supernova are still glowing at temperatures 10,000 times hotter than the Sun thousands of years after the event.
They were captured by the Japanese Suzaku space observatory, after unusual features were detected in the Jellyyfish Nebula (IC 443), 5,000 light years away.
THE FIRST URBAN TRANSFORMER SCOOTER Magical performance on the road! With its clean - electric - and powerful motorization, its light weight, its amazing accelerations, its large flat deck, its low centre of gravity, its lowered saddle, its tight turning radius, its exceptional ease of use, XO2 is the ideal scooter for the city and commuting.
Gets magically small when needed!
Store it at home, take it on the train, tuck it in the trunk of your car.
Restrictions magically fly away!
No more rides to the gas pump! An ordinary current makes it. The battery is removable. Really fast recharging times! Recharging only takes about 2 hours.
A significant range! XO2 lets you plan 100 kms rides wach day.
No maintenance!

Synopsis:
The time is the too-near future. Powered and enabled by the invention known as the Great Machine, the world’s machines have turned on mankind and sparked social unrest, decimating the human population before being largely shut down.
But as our world fell to pieces, a mission began to salvage the legacy of civilization; a group of small creations was given the spark of life by a scientist in the final days of humanity, and they continue to exist post-apocalypse. Another of their own, #9 (voiced by Elijah Wood), emerges and displays leadership qualities that may help them survive and possibly even thrive. The conflicted but resilient tribe already includes #1 (Christopher Plummer), a domineering war veteran and the group’s longtime leader; #2 (Martin Landau), a kindly but now-frail inventor; #3 and #4, scholarly twins who communicate nonverbally and mostly with each other; #5 (John C. Reilly), a stalwart and nurturing engineer; #6 (Crispin Glover), an erratic artist beset by visions; #7 (Jennifer Connelly), a brave and self-sufficient warrior; and #8 (Fred Tatasciore), the none-too-bright muscle and enforcer for #1.
With their group so few, these “stitchpunk” creations must summon individual strengths well beyond their own proportions in order to outwit and fight against still-functioning machines, one of which is a marauding mechanized beast. In the darkness just before the dawn, #9 rallies everyone of his number to band together.
While showcasing a stunning “steampunk”-styled visual brilliance, 9 dynamically explores the will to live, the power of community, and how one soul can change the world.
