Why do all stars end in a supernova?
Oops! Not all stars end up as a supernova. To become a Type 2 supernova, the star has to be between 8 and 50 times larger than the Sun.
Who named the supernova star?
A supernova is not a single star, but an event that occurs to the most massive stars when they reach the end of their life. Therefore it cannot be named. See related questions for details on Supernova
What type of stars end their life in supernovae?
Massive Stars.
What is the difference of a nebula and a supernova?
A nebula contains stars and other matter; a supernova is just a large enough nova, or star that explodes at the end of its life cycle due to spent fuel
Do Stars spend most of their life span as main-sequence stars?
Yes Star spend most of their life span as a main sequence star. A star end will depend on its size in life the end of a start can be a red giant to supernova, a white dwarf, pulsar, or black hole.

How do super massive rare stars end their life as?
The most massive stars will end up as black holes. Those are the stars that have more than approximately 3 solar masses at the end of their life - i.e., AFTER the supernova explosion.
What is the destiny of the rigel star?
It will end its life as a type II supernova.
How can you use supernova in a sentence?
Heavy stars go supernova at the end of their lives.

What is the brilliant explosion that spells the end to massive stars called?
A supernova

How do the lives of the most massive stars end?
Less massive stars end up as white dwarfs. More massive stars end up as a supernova or a neutron star or for the really massive stars...as a black hole. As a star ends its time in the main sequence it either becomes a Red Giant and end its life as a White Dwarf or becomes a White Super Giant and ends its life in an explosion (supernova) and if it's really dense it becomes a neutron star or a black hole as mentioned above.
What type of stars end their lives in a supernovae?
The most massive ones. The exact amount of mass requires varies, depending on the type of supernova, and on the element mix of the initial star.
Why are blue stars called supernovas?
They are not. A supernova is an explosion of a star. Blue stars usually end their lives in such explosions.
