The remnant of a supernova is typically composed of elements such as iron and nickel, which are formed during the star's life cycle. After the supernova explosion, these elements can be dispersed into space, contributing to the formation of new stars and planets. Additionally, neutron stars or black holes may form from the core remnants of very massive stars.
What else can I help you with?
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.
Is a black hole a supernova remnant?
No, a black hole is not typically a supernova remnant. A black hole is formed when a massive star collapses under its own gravity, creating a region of spacetime from which nothing, not even light, can escape. On the other hand, a supernova remnant is the leftover material from a massive star's explosion in a supernova event.
Was the first neutron star observed in a supernova remnant?
Yes, the first neutron star was observed in a supernova remnant. The object, named PSR B1919+21, was discovered in 1967 in the Crab Nebula, the remnant of a supernova that exploded in the year 1054 AD.
What is the Vela Supernova?
The Vela Supernova is the remnant of a supernova explosion that occurred in the Vela constellation about 11,000 to 12,300 years ago. It is located about 800 light-years away from Earth and is one of the closest known supernova remnants to us.
A spinning neutron star has been observed at the center of a?
neutron star has been observed at the center of a supernova remnant, known as the Crab Nebula. This neutron star, also called a pulsar, spins rapidly, emitting beams of radiation that are observed as pulses by astronomers.
Can a pulsar change into a supernova?
No. A pulsar is a remnant left behind by a supernova.
What Remnant can stretch over a distance of several light-years?
A supernova remnant.
Why is the Crab Nebula considered a supernova remnant?
Because it IS a supernova remnant. It's the visial remains of a star that expolded and was seen in 1054. Designated SN 1054.
What might happened to a star after it explodes as a supernova?
The supernova remnant will either be a neutron star or a black hole.
How big is supernova cassiopeia?
Currently the expanding cloud from the supernova remnant is about 10 light years across.

What determines what stage comes after a supernova?
The amount of mass in the remnant. If the mass of the remnant exceeds 3 solar masses then it will become a black hole.

The Vela Supernova is the remnant of a supernova explosion that occurred in the Vela constellation about 11,000 to 12,300 years ago. It is located about 800 light-years away from Earth and is one of the closest known supernova remnants to us.
What remnant does a supernova leave?
Depending on the mass of the original star, it is either a black hole or a neutron star.
