What happens to stars that explode?
they are called super novas
Do suns explode when they die?
Most do not. Stars about 10 times more massive than the sun or larger will explode. Smaller stars shed their outer layers gradually.
What is left when stars explode?
When smaller stars explode (like our Sun), they leave a nebula cloud by releasing their gas and they become a small but dense white dwarf star.When big stars explode (like Betelgeuse), they have a massive explosion called a supernova and the core of the star turns into a black hole or a pulsar.
What characteristics does the sun have in common with other stars?
They explode with nuclear explosions.
What could cause the galaxy to explode?
A Galaxy could not explode. An individual star can, and does, but a Galaxy consists of billions of stars quite widely separated.
What happens to the large bright stars that are created in the waves of a spiral galaxy?
They explode
What do stars explode into?
Novas
Does every star explode?
No. Only the most massive stars explode.
What will happen if the five stars explode?
Depends on which 5 stars
What happens when stars go into a black hole?
stars explode
Do stars explode?
Some stars do. They can be nova or supernova stars, depending on the scale of the explosion.
What is it called when stars in the sky die?
Some stars explode in a supernova.
What form do old stars take?
The fate of an old star depends on its mass. Small stars will burn, essentially, forever. Medium mass stars like our Sun will eventually expand into a red giant, and collapse into a white dwarf. Very large stars will explode as supernova stars; these end up as neutron stars or if their initial mass is large enough, as black holes.

When a star dies does its mass change?
If it explodes; yes. If it just goes out, then no. Note that large stars generally all explode to some degree (the more massive, the greater the explosion). The stars that don't are the small (red) stars that last a long, long time.
What will a super large star become?
black holes
