N49 or LMC N49 (PKS 0525-66, PKS B0525-661, PKS J0525-6604, SNR J052559-660453), also known as Brasil Nebula, is a supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

After a massive detection of Gamma-ray and X-ray emissions from the LMC N49 were detected on March 5, 1979 by the Venera 11, 12, other 7 spacecraft, and confirmed to be particularly strong by the first X-ray telescope, the Einstein Observatory. The N49 supernova remnant is also known as the Brasil Nebula, due to its shape resembling the outline of Brazil in some images.
