What is a supernova?
Supernova signifies the death of stars! It is the name given to a star that starts burning more brightly than usual and then the brightness of which suddenly decreases. All stars derive their energy by a reaction similar to that of a hydrogen bomb. Two atoms of hydrogen fuse to form an atom of helium and in this nuclear reaction immense energy is derived.
