What types of stars are thought to be the remnants of supernova explosions?

Supernova explosions are believed to generally result in a black hole, as the core of the star is collapsed into an unimaginably dense point mass. One can't really say that a black hole is any kind of star. Less powerful nova explosions probably result in pulsars or neutron stars.


Where did copper form?

Copper can only form in supernova explosions, when a dead star collapses to become either a neutron star or a black hole.


Which types of technologies has best helped scientists to study very high energy objects in outer space such as exploding supernova black holes and pulsars?

X-ray telescopes


What subjects could be find on the site Astronomy for kids?

You can learn all about telescopes, stargazing, comets, constellations, galaxies and black holes. Find out who invented the telescope, famous astronomers and space exploration.


What type of objects do stars end their life as?

They will end up as neutron stars or even black holes. Usually they will first explode as a supernova (of type1a).


What is the adverb phrase of a black hole is the remains of a supermassive star after a supernova?

after a supernova


What kind of Astronomers study black holes?

specifically, "astronomers" that study black holes are called cosmologists.


Can a supernova escape a black hole?

No.


Were did a black hole come from?

Black holes came from old big stars that went supernova as it dies. Supernova causes the star to collapse into a black hole


Will a supernova cause a black whole?

Either a black hole, or a neutron star. That depends on how much mass is left after the supernova explosion.


Are black series telescopes a good telescope to buy for seeing different plantes?

Black series telescopes are good telescopes to buy for seeing different planets. They allow a clear view for stargazing.


Can a black hole stop a supernova?

A black hole is often the RESULT of a supernova explosion. When a massive star dies, the star explodes. The core of the star is crushed, while the outer layers of the star are blown away into space. This explosion is a nova or supernova. The early astronomers, seeing a burst of light where no star had ever been seen before, called them "nova stellarum", or "new star". When the core of the star is crushed by the explosion, the result is a neutron star or a black hole, depending on how densely the core is collapsed.
