The fact that the supernova remnant Sgr A East is quite small suggests that it is fairly young (not greater than approximately 6800 yr). The a priori probability that a supernova should have occurred so recently within about 2.5 pc of the galactic nucleus is calculated to be not greater than approximately 0.1. The a priori probability that a supernova such as S And would have occurred within 16 arcsec of the nucleus of M31 is found to be approximately 0.005. Such low probabilities suggest the remote possibility that the occurrence of these supernovae might, in some unspecified way, be related to their proximity to galactic nuclei.
