Supernovae are the most powerful explosions in the universe, unleashing enough energy to outshine galaxies. We have no real metaphor for their power – if the sun were to magically go supernova it would feel like you were being hit by the energy of a nuclear explosion, every second. For weeks. 

While supernovae are the engines of creation, forging the elements that enable life, they also burn sterile whole regions of galaxies. So what would happen if one hit earth?

Omg! Supernova was unknown information for me until now and I thank you for this amazing video.

Finally subbed, for £19.91 (has my Birth day month and year) That’s the most I’m giving anyone on Patreon currently. The reason is “The Egg”. That video helped me get through the grieving process when losing my Nan (my final living grandparent). The story and animation is so beautiful that I cried and cried. It is my favourite explanation of the Universe because it is beautiful. Glad to join the Bird club 🙂 (doubly funny because she hated birds and feathers 😅) My Name: Nik Davis Zero Good to meet you all 🙂
