How Supernova Is formed?

A supernova is a massive explosion of a dying star. It can be so bright that it can outshine an entire galaxy.

There are two main types of supernovas:

Core-collapse supernovas occur when the core of a massive star collapses under its own gravity.

Type Ia supernovas occur when a white dwarf star accretes too much mass from a companion star.
