New preprint studies detail the strongly lensed superluminous supernova SN 2025wny, located at a redshift of z = 2.015. Researchers used space-based data for lens modeling, cosmography, and photometric time-delay measurements. This research enhances understanding of highly energetic stellar explosions in the distant universe and provides insights into the properties of gravitational lensing, a key tool for observing the cosmos.
