Scientific paper

I first read that R136 contained a supermassive object some time ago in the Sunday edition of the Chilean daily newspaper EI Mercurio, where it was announced that ... "European astronomers discover the most massive star in the Universe!". Since EI Mercurio is almost always wrang I did not take the announcement very seriously until the paper by Feitzinger and Co-workers (henceforth the Bochum graup) appeared in Astronomy and Astrophysics in 1980. More or less simultaneously with the publication of these optical observations, a graup of observers from the University of Wisconsin, headed by J. Cassinelli (henceforth the Wisconsin group) reached the same Conclusion on the basis of ultraviolet observations obtained with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE).
