A Millennium of Shattered Stars: Our Galaxy's Historical Supernovae. F. Richard Stephenson and David A. Green. - Sky & Telescope, 2003. - SIRS Enduring Issues 2004. Article 51, Science, 1522-3264; .
Articles Contained in SIRS Enduring Issues 2004. Originally Published: A Millennium of Shattered Stars: Our Galaxy's Historical Supernovae, May 2003; pp. 40-48.
"Of the various stellar explosions that astronomers observe from time to time in our own galaxy and others, supernovae are among the most violent. In the course of such an outburst, a star is either disrupted completely or split apart, its outer layers hurled outward at supersonic speeds while its core is crushed to extraordinary density." (SKY & TELESCOPE) This article discusses supernovae in the Milky Way Galaxy, some of which were first observed nearly 1000 years ago.
