   "Such massive stars create lots of oxygen in their nuclear furnaces," Massachusetts Institute of Technology astronomer Claude Canizares said yesterday at the annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society.
   ...
   The brilliant light from the starburst reached Earth about 1,000 years ago, and could have been visible to the naked eyes of people in Australia or South America, Canizares said.
   ...
   The oxygen from this supernova alone would weigh as much as 10 of our suns, and would be enough to supply 1,000 solar systems like our own, Canizares said.
   ...
   Canizares said after the oxygen was "baked in the oven" he added, it was "made available to those of us who like to take a breath."
