SN 1054 remnant (Crab Nebula)A supernova is an event in which a star destroys itself in an explosion which can briefly become as luminous as an entire galaxy.This list of supernovae of historical significance includes events that were observed prior to the development of photography, and individual events that have been the subject of a scientific paper that contributed to supernova theory.
This is a list of observed supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Milky Way, as well as galaxies nearby enough to resolve individual nebulae, such as the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Andromeda Galaxy.
185 – Chinese astronomers become the first to record observations of a supernova, SN 185. 1006 – SN 1006, a magnitude −7.5 supernova in the constellation of Lupus, is observed throughout Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. 1054 – Astronomers in Asia and the Middle East observe SN 1054, the Crab Nebula supernova explosion.
This is a list of supernova candidates, or stars that are believed to soon become supernovae. Type II supernova progenitors include stars with at least 8~10 solar masses that are in the final stages of their evolution.
Artist's impression of a supernova. Supernovae, extremely powerful explosions of stars, have been featured in works of fiction since at least the early 1900s.The idea that the Sun could explode in this manner has served as the basis for many stories about disaster striking Earth, though it is now recognized that this cannot actually happen.
The universe is big, it’s old, and there’s a lot of weird stuff out there. Including the Muppets. In Muppets from Space (now streaming on Peacock!), the 1999 comedy featuring our favorite felt ...
