IS a supernova a celestial body?
A supernova is not a celestial body in itself, but rather an astronomical event where a star suddenly increases greatly in brightness due to an explosive burst of energy. It is the result of the death of a massive star.
Will Betelgeuse become a white dwarf?
It's difficult to know exactly what Betelgeuse will become, but it will most likely explode as a supernova. The result will probably be a black hole, but depending on the magnitude of the explosion, it could become a neutron star or pulsar.
What is a supernova with the sun?
If the Sun were to undergo a supernova event, it would result in the complete destruction of the Sun, leaving behind either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on its mass. The explosion would release an immense amount of energy and radiation, potentially causing significant damage to Earth and any nearby celestial bodies. However, the Sun is not massive enough to end its life cycle in a supernova; it will eventually become a white dwarf.
When does supernova occur?
A supernova occurs when a massive star reaches the end of its life cycle and undergoes a catastrophic explosion. This explosion can outshine an entire galaxy for a brief period of time before fading away.
Does a supernova implode or explode to form a black hole?
It depends on the mass of the star. When massive stars die the result is usually an enormous explosion called a supernova, but the core will collapse to form a dense remnant. If the remnant is less than 3 times the mass of the sun then it will form a neutron star. If it is greater than 3 times the mass of the sun it will form a black hole. Extremely massive stars may collapse directly into a black hole with no supernova.

Will the sun become a supernova in the future?
No, the sun will not become a supernova in the future. It is not massive enough to undergo a supernova explosion. Instead, it will eventually expand into a red giant and then shed its outer layers to become a white dwarf.
How far is the crab nebula?
The crab nebula is estimated to be about 6,300 light year away.
What is produce when the outer core of a star explodes after the core collapses?
It is a supergiant.(the late stage in the life cycle of a massive starin which the core heats up, heavy elements formedby fusion, and expands; it can eventually explodeto what scientist call a supernova.)-Missy K
What is a region in space which is left behind after a major star dies?
A region left behind after a major star dies is called a supernova remnant. Supernova remnants are expanding shells of gas and dust that result from the explosive death of a massive star in a supernova event. They play a crucial role in enriching the interstellar medium with heavy elements and triggering new star formation.

A supernova occurs when a massive star reaches the end of its life cycle and undergoes a catastrophic explosion. This explosion can outshine an entire galaxy for a brief period of time before fading away.
What is the name for a supernova cloud?
Nebula. Some nebulae are formed as the result of supernova explosions. The material thrown off from the supernova explosion is ionized by the supernova remnant. One of the best examples of this is the Crab Nebula, in Taurus. It is the result of a recorded supernova, SN 1054, in the year 1054 and at the centre of the nebula is a neutron star, created during the explosion.
Does a supernova implode or explode to form a black hole?
It depends on the mass of the star. When massive stars die the result is usually an enormous explosion called a supernova, but the core will collapse to form a dense remnant. If the remnant is less than 3 times the mass of the sun then it will form a neutron star. If it is greater than 3 times the mass of the sun it will form a black hole. Extremely massive stars may collapse directly into a black hole with no supernova.
Do scientist believe a binary star produces a nova?
A binary star may, or may not, be related to a nova or supernova. In some specific cases, a supernova is specifically caused by a close binary system; but not all binary systems result in novas, and not all novas come from binary stars.
What can form after the supernova of a red giant?
After the supernova of a red giant, remnants such as a neutron star or a black hole can form, depending on the mass of the original star. If the star was especially massive, it may also result in a supermassive black hole or a hypernova explosion.
