Astronomers Discover "supernova Of A Generation"
A supernova was discovered yesterday near the Earth than any other in its class. Astronomers believe they have found a supernova in the early hours after the explosion and the discovery of the supernova so early and so close to Earth was the astronomical community buzzing with excitement.

What is a supernova? It 'been a tremendous explosion that causes the onset of radiation, which can often blur the entire galaxy before fading from view for more than a couple of weeks or months. During this relatively short period of time, a supernova can radiate more energy as the sun is expected to release its entire life cycle. (It 'a lot of energy.)
