3C 58

3C 58 or 3C58 is a pulsar (designation PSR J0205+6449) and supernova remnant (pulsar wind nebula) within the Milky Way that is possibly associated with the supernova of 1181. There are, however, signs that indicate that it could be several thousand years old, and thus not associated with that supernova. The object is listed as No. 58 in the Third Cambridge Catalogue of Radio Sources. It is located 2° northeast of ε Cassiopeiae and is estimated to be 10,000 light-years away. Its rotation period is 65.7 ms (so PSR J0205+6449 does not belong to the millisecond pulsars).
