Scientific paper

A blue stellar object has been discovered within the fuzz surrounding the quasar 1059+730. This object was observed in multiple CCD frames taken on one night, but it is not visible in other images of the QSO. The authors propose that the object is probably a supernova event in the host galaxy of the quasar. The detection of this supernova provides a consistency argument that QSOs are at their cosmological distances and demonstrates that the envelopes surrounding QSOs contain stars and possibly star formation.
