White Dwarf.
The biggest star - VY Canis Majoris IS in a red supergiant phase and will explode as a massive supernova.
It won't - it doesn't have enough mass. But if any star converts to a supernova, it will destroy its planetary system in the process, and even cause damage to nearby solar systems (should they have life, it would be in grave peril). After the supernova phase, what remains of the star would normally convert to a neutron star, or a black hole.
1. Birth 2. Main sequence star phase 3. Deplation of hydrogen and helium fuel and expansion phase 4. Dying phase : either simple ejection of outer layers or explosion as a nova 5. Last phase : Black hole, neutron star or white dwarf
Rock Star Supernova was created in 2006.
A supernova occurs at the end of a massive star's life cycle.

It's Called A Supernova
A supernova, or in the case of a smaller star, a nova.
The supernova remnant will either be a neutron star or a black hole.
Dangerous. Novas, or supernovas. Tycho Brahe coined the phrase "nova stellarum" when a "new star" appeared in the night sky. We now know that he was observing a supernova, the death throes of a very massive star.
The remnant core of a star that becomes a supernova will normally be a neutron star, or possibly a pulsar (a rapidly spinning neutron star). The largest of stars would theoretically create a black hole, a singularity containing all of the core's mass at a single point and preventing even light from escaping its massive gravity.
No, not a supernova.
