Best Answer

A supernova is an exploding star. The Earth would be instantly incinerated, of course.

There is approximately zero chance this will ever happen, though.

If there was a supernova near Earth ... it would depend on how near. Betelgeuse is a good candidate for a supernova "soon" (within the next million years or so). Scientists who have modeled supernova explosions don't expect it will have much of an impact. If a star nearer than Betelgeuse were to go supernova, then it might be more serious.

What will happen to people and animals if their is no sunlight?

If there is no Sun Light the Core of the earth would cool, all living organisms would be killed and when the sore of the earth cooled the earth would implode due to a sub-normal reaction between heat and gravity, the gravity would win and implode the earths crust. This would cause a huge super-nova in our galaxy and send earth particles flying through the universe.


If a supernova happens would you see it from earth?

It depends how far it is.Super nova's are VERY big.you would probably not see it but they are big.There were no close super nova's near earth.They were all at the other side of the galaxy or somewhere in another galaxy.
