Peering deep into the universe, astronomers probed the clash of cosmic forces. The obliteration of matter and energy. We glimpsed the limits of time and space. In the strange death of the star. Its surface is a stormy sea of fire. As superheated gas rises and sinks. Giant waves flow. Solar tsunamis a thousand kilometers high. Deep within its core, the star has begun to collapse in on itself That causes the star to erupt. This cycle of death and birth has dеfined the history of our galaxy. Our own vision of space has been shaped by a handful of rare exploding stars.

Supernova.
