When a supergiant star exhausts its nuclear fuel and dies, it may explode in a supernova event. Depending on its mass, the remnants can either collapse into a neutron star or form a black hole. The outcome is determined by the star's initial mass and the processes occurring during the supernova explosion.

Is a supernova a super giant?

A supernova may have been a supergiant star at one time, but it did not have to be. Any star with a mass greater than 3 times our sun will supernova.
