What Wikipedia says

The Vela Pulsar (PSR J0835–4510 or PSR B0833–45) is a radio, optical, X-ray- and gamma-emitting pulsar associated with the Vela supernova remnant in the constellation of Vela. Its parent Type II supernova exploded approximately 11,000–12,300 years ago (and was about 800 light-years away).
