520 _a"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.
