SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -As the star runs out of nuclear fuel, some of its mass flows into its core. Eventually, the core is so heavy that it cannot withstand its own gravitational force. The core collapses, which results in the giant explosion of a supernova.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Short Answer: A supernova is the biggest explosion that humans have ever seen. Each blast is the extremely bright, super-powerful explosion of a star. A supernova is the biggest explosion that humans have ever seen. Each blast is the extremely bright, super-powerful explosion of a star.

Detailed explanation-3: -Stars do explode, and when that happens they’re known as supernovae. A supernova creates an explosion billions of times brighter than our sun, with enough energy to outshine its own galaxy for weeks.

Detailed explanation-4: -A supernova is what happens when a star has reached the end of its life and explodes in a brilliant burst of light. Supernovae can briefly outshine entire galaxies (opens in new tab) and radiate more energy than our sun (opens in new tab) will in its entire lifetime.

Detailed explanation-5: -When Betelgeuse explodes as a supernova it will be more than 10 times brighter than the full moon in our sky. It is only 640 light years away, and could have already become a supernova, but the light from it just hasn’t reached us yet. Supernovae occur in stars with at least 8 solar masses.
