The supernova must be at most 3000 light years away from Earth to have any effect on us. If it is, the ultraviolet and gamma radiation will scorch everything on Earth, and kill all the phytoplankton in the ocean. If the plankton dies, all fish die. If fish die, all fish-eating land animals die, and so on until all animal life on Earth is dead. Plants may survive.
If the supernova is 100 light years away, it will obliterate the planet itself.
What else can I help you with?
What happens if all the stars supernova?
we all die
Where does a supernova fit into a star's lifecycle?
A supernova occurs at the end of a massive star's life cycle.
Why doesn't a supernova occur on earth?
A supernova can't occur on any planet. A supernova occurs when a very large star, at least 8 times more massive than the sun dies.
What type of supernova will Betelgeuse be?
Betelgeuse is expected to end its life in a supernova explosion, likely as a Type II supernova due to its massive size and age. This type of supernova occurs when a massive star exhausts its nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity.
Why is iron significant to understanding how a supernova occurs?
Iron cannot release energy by fusion. When a star has used up all the lighter elements and has just iron left, it has no more nuclear "fuel". That causes the star to contract then explode very violently as a supernova.
What happens if all the stars supernova?
we all die
What phenomenon occurs when a star eplodes?
Supernova.
Where does a supernova fit into a star's lifecycle?
A supernova occurs at the end of a massive star's life cycle.
Formed from an explosion that occurs as a star collapses quickly?
Supernova
What makes a supernova occur in a star's lifecycle?
A supernova occurs in a star's lifecycle when it runs out of fuel and its core collapses, causing a massive explosion.
Why doesn't a supernova occur on earth?
A supernova can't occur on any planet. A supernova occurs when a very large star, at least 8 times more massive than the sun dies.
What type of supernova will Betelgeuse be?
Betelgeuse is expected to end its life in a supernova explosion, likely as a Type II supernova due to its massive size and age. This type of supernova occurs when a massive star exhausts its nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity.
What happens after a nebula contract and its temperature increases 10 million k?
A supernova occurs.
What happens after a nebula contracts and it temperature increases to 10 million k?
A supernova occurs.
What happen after a nebula contracts and temperatures increase to 10 million k?
A supernova occurs.
Is a supernova an asteroid?
No. An asteroid is a piece of rock and/or metal in in outer space. A supernova is an explosion that occurs when a large star dies or when gas accumulates around a white dwarf.
Do all supernova remnants contain pulsars?
No. Some supernova remnants contain black holes.
