There are two main types of supernovae. Type 1 happen when a white dwarf take up gas from something near them and always explode that gas away from the white dwarf when they reach 1.38 times the mass of our sun. The gas moves at about nine million meters per second.
Type 2 happen when a very very big star runs out of fuel so they don't have any particular size.
The sun is larger than severel stars, in fact some scienctists believe it's one of the brightest stars in our galaxy.
Alioth is not a supernova. Alioth is the brightest star in the Big Dipper asterism and is located in the Ursa Major constellation. It is a relatively young star that is part of a group of stars known as the Ursa Major Moving Group.

The Big Bang happened first. It is the beginning of the Universe as we know it - we don't know what happened before that.During the Big Bang, hydrogen and helium were formed; other elements were created later, through nuclear fusion - and some of those were ejected in supernova explosions.
Yes, a star with a mass 10 times greater than the sun can produce a supernova. When massive stars exhaust their nuclear fuel, they undergo a catastrophic explosion called a supernova, leading to the collapse of the star's core and the ejection of its outer layers into space.
Really big stars, which die in supernova explosions.
A supernova is much larger and brighter than a regular, stable star like our sun. During a supernova event, the star can briefly outshine an entire galaxy before fading away. The process of a supernova represents the violent death of a massive star.
Black holes came from old big stars that went supernova as it dies. Supernova causes the star to collapse into a black hole
yes.It would create a massive supernova of over 100000 degrees F and you would all die!!! We wouldn't die. Those stars are far too distant.
Once a high mass star goes supernova, it doesn't become any other type of star - it becomes a pile of enormously dense stellar ash, or if it was big enough to begin with, it becomes a black hole.

The sun is an average-sized star compared to other stars in the universe. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star and is larger than many other stars but smaller than some of the largest stars known.
Yes, they do. This is called a nova or supernova, depending on its mass. The supernova outshines every star you can see usually depending on the distance. If a star is big enough, the supernova can create a black hole in space. The crab nebula was formed by a supernovas about 1,000 years ago.
When galaxies "collide", the individual stars do not actually smash together; they're far enough apart that they mostly slip past each other.

The elements on the periodic table were created by stars through nuclear fusion. We use the term stellar nucleosynthesis to describe what stars are doing through fusion. Stars fuse hydrogen into helium, and then start making heavier elements by a different fusion process. But stars can only make elements up through iron. They can't make the heavier elements. Enter the supernova. A supernova is that "big blast" that occurs at the end of the life of some stars. In a supernova, the trans-iron elements are formed. That is, all the elements heavier than iron are formed in a supernova. Because the elements heavier than iron are formed in a supernova, we can say that there is a relationship between the supernova and the periodic table of elements.
No. Only massive, short lived stars can supernova and only under certain conditions. The large majority or suns, including our own (yellow dwarf) will eventually burn out and become black dwarfs. However, this process takes so long the Universe is not yet old enough for us to witness the event.Nope... Stars like our sun end with a red giant then a White dwarfOnly big stars with a mass that is 10 times the sun only explode into a supernova...so basically ... nope
