Only 11,000 l.y. away, A pair of super massive stars whirl in a dance that recently produced one ‘fizzle’ supernova… and will likely then make another ‘fizzle’… followed eventually by a Kilonova spewing gold and other heavy elements across the galaxy.

I get that in terms of the size of the galaxy, 11,000 ly is not a large distance. But I wouldn’t use the word “only” in this context. That said, I wonder if anyone is out there watching it up close. Maybe counting down to the end of their civilization.
