The arrow in the photo on the left points to the location of the star that has exploded as a supernova in the photo on the right. Suppose you had looked with your naked eye at the supernova on the night it was photographed in the "during/after" photo. Assuming that it was bright enough to see (it was), what would it have looked like to your naked eye?

A) like a single star in the night sky B) like a huge white blob, about the angular size of the full Moon but not quite as bright C) like a reddish cloud spread out over a region of the sky about half the angular size of the full moon D) like a pulsating bright light, dimming and brightening about every 5 minutes
