Left: Progenitor of SN 2024abfo detected in an HST/WFPC2 F814W image obtained in 2001. The circle is centred at the transformed position of SN 2024abfo and has a radius equal to the uncertainty in the SN position of 0.2″. Centre: Progenitor of SN 2024abfo visible in the stacked images from DESI Legacy Surveys DR10, taken between 2013 and 2017. In a clockwise sense from the upper left corner: Sloan g, r, i, and z images. Right: Progenitor also detected by XMM-Newton/OM in 2010 in B (top) and V (bottom) filters. The circles are centred at the position of SN 2024abfo; they have a radius of 1″ in the DESI frames and 2″ in the XMM frames. In all images, north is up and east to the left.
