First observed between August 4 and August 6, 1181, Chinese and Japanese astronomers recorded the supernova now known as SN 1181 in eight separate texts. One of only nine supernovae in the Milky Way observable with the naked eye in recorded history, it appeared in the constellation Cassiopeia and was visible in the night sky for about 185 days. Pulsar 3C-58 The radio and X-ray pulsar J0205+6449 (also known as 3C 58), which rotates about 15 times per second, has been identified as the possible remnant from this event. If the supernova and pulsar are associated, the star is still rotating about as quickly as it did when it first formed. This is in contrast to the Crab pulsar, known to be the remnant of the SN 1054 supernova in the year 1054, which has lost two-thirds of its rotational energy in essentially the same time span. A paper of radio surveys of 3C 58 published in 2006 indicated that this supernova remnant may be much older and thus not associated with SN 1181. However, in 2013 it was shown that the latter result originated from an erroneous estimation of the distance to this supernova remnant (~3.2 kpc), and that a more realistic distance estimate (2.0±0.3 kpc) brings the age of 3C 58 back into agreement with the hypothesis that 3C 58 is the remnant of SN 1181. Wolf-Rayet candidate remnant In 2021, a team of astronomers led by Andreas Ritter and Quentin Parker from the University of Hong Kong announced the discovery of an alternative (claimed to be more likely) SN 1181 candidate: an extremely hot Wolf Rayet star dubbed Parker's Star (J005311 / IRAS 00500+6713) which is surrounded by a gaseous nebula named Pa 30 (Patchick 30) approximately 0.9 parsecs wide and expanding at 1100 kilometers per second. The measurements are based on an estimated distance of 3,000 parsecs based on GAIA data for the star. The observed properties of Pa 30 suggests it is the remnant of SN 1181 which apparently was a rare Type Iax supernova not resulting in the complete destruction of the merged progenitor stars. Hence J005311/Parker's Star is likely a so-called "zombie star". The nebula was first detected on August 25, 2013 by American amateur astronomer Dana Patchick in WISE mid-infrared imagery as a Planetary Nebula candidate. In addition to the WISE detection of Pa 30, the bright central star (Mg. 15.4) was
