Supernova's

One of my favorite topics when it comes to astronomy is SUPERNOVA's. A supernova is a star that suddenly increases in brightness because of a catastrophic explosion that ejects most of its mass. This results in ASTONISHING pictures (if you are lucky enough to catch a supernova as it's happening!)

I didn't take these pictures, but I sure wish I did. Some visual enjoyment for those wanting to explore space photography more :-)
