There are some effects of UV radiation that might mutate your face but the closest star is so far away it probably wouldn't have much effect at all. Our Sun will never go supernova but if it did, in this situation you wouldn't want to be anywhere in the solar system none the less turn to look at it.
The distance that the supernova is from Earth would affect how much it effects us. If our sun were to go supernova at this moment, there would be a seven minute delay until the light from the nova reaches us. It is likely that a "shock wave" would be produced and the earth would probably be destroyed very soon after we realise that a super nova has happened. If a supernova occurred in Alpha Centauri, it would take 4 years for us to realise so, and the effects from such supernova are yet unknown, but would probably include an increase in radiation entering our solar system. It is likely that our Sun's magnetosphere would prevent a large amount of the radiation from getting into the solar system. It is also unlikely that any matter would have enough momenteum to travel the 4 light years between Alpha Centuari and Sol (our sun). Any super nova that occurs outside our own solar system would normally only increase the amount of raditation that impacts that magnetosphere. Supernovas that have occurred in the Milky Way Galaxy, in the past have had very little effect on Humans here on Earth.
Another answer:
According to our present understanding, all elements heavier than lithium are created naturally only in stars, and all elements heavier than iron are created during supernova events. Many of those elements are required to make planets, life, and ultimately, humans. Supernovae are the events that spread those elements out into the void, where they eventually collect as clouds of gas and collapse into planets and other astronomical bodies. Thus, we would not exist if supernovae has not previously seeded the universe.
1. You would be blasted to pieces by the explosion 2. You would be burned to nothing by the intense energy and heat waves 3. You would choke to death on the dust and gas that gets thrown into space 4. You would be blinded by the brightness of it all 5. If you survived everything in the list above this, then you would be sucked into the black hole the supernova created
if u can see a visible supernova,that will probably be your last vision....after that your eyes will be damaged coz a supernova is 1 which produces a temp which is equal to the core temp of the sun or even greater
Earth is a planet, not a star; it can never become any kind of a star. That means it cannot go supernova. Only large stars bigger than about 4 solar masses can become novas, and only VERY massive stars can go supernova.
It will form a black hole
Well a supernova is the explosions or death of a star, so the Vela supernova is probably the supernova of the star vela!
A supernova occurs at the end of a massive star's life cycle.
The sun is neither a supernova nor a white dwarf. The sun is a main sequence star. A supernova is not a kind of star: it is the explosion of a massive star.
No, a supernova is an explosion of a star. What left of a supernova are celestial bodies.

Rock Star Supernova was created in 2006.
There would be a bright star in the sky, that might be visible during the day. Otherwise, not a lot. Would be nice to see though.

When a star explodes, it is referred to as a nova. If the star is large enough, it will create a super nova. And if the star is dense enough, it does not explode, but instead collapses on itself and forms a black hole

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.
