A supernova is a massive star explosion that occurs when a star runs out of fuel and collapses in on itself, releasing enormous amounts of energy and heavy elements into space. Understanding supernovae is crucial for the tech community as they have significant implications for astrophysics, cosmology, and the development of new technologies, such as advanced telescopes and space exploration missions, that help scientists study these rare and powerful events.
