Define Supernova Meaning

Supernova
A supernova, is the catastrophic gravitational collapse of a stellar (star) core having a mass greater than 3.5 times the mass of the Sun. This is the last stage of the evolution of a star on the main sequence (Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram), and which ends in a violent explosion of the star's core, when nuclear forces prohibit any further collapse of the star, leaving behind a neutronium core, making it a neutron star. Supernovae are the most energetic stellar events in the known universe.

In 1989, a star in the galaxy M66, in the constellation Leo, underwent a supernova core collapse, which left stellar remnants in the form of a planetary nebula.

Supernova
a big-ass explosion that happens to a star in da outer space, homie.

yo Neil, float on over here and come take a geez at that Supernova.

Supernova
Something that is incredibly hot, or much hotter than you expect it to be.
It somehow defies logic as to how it got that hot.

Omfg, this coffee is supernova.
Jeez dude, I can't eat this soup now, it's supernova.
Don't touch that shit, it's supernova.

Supernova
A long legged black male with rather nappy hair that lives in the highest sections of the northeast. Referred to as supernova, because they are extremely rare.

Abram: Yo man who's that supernova over there.

Justin: The last time i saw somebody like that in these parts was about 12 years ago.

Supernova
a home run batted with such force that the ball lands unbelievably high up into the audience boxes.

Holy shiiiiit! Did you see that supernova! That batter is incredible! What is he, fookin' Superman?!

Supernova
1. (adj., slang) relating to or involving an idea, creation, work of art, etc.. that is so brilliant it inspires other brilliant works after one is exposed to it. Unlike viral trends, trends that Supernova may or may not circulate rapidly and widely from one Internet user to another, but they eventually gain world wide acclaim. The full meaning is most clearly grasped, after the epiphanies experienced via deep contemplation of the juxtaposition with its antithesis, "viral." While both types of works trend, only positive ones Supernova!

2. (verb) To ejaculate so intensely one lose consciousness.

3. (noun) A rare celestial phenomenon that inspired the slang term Supernova. (see N.A.S.A. for more)

1. That brilliant idea to make a positive version of the slang term "viral" went Supernova!

2. I was concerned I was gonna have to call 911 after she Supernova'd and I couldn't wake her, for like, 10 minutes!!

3. She artfully described a supernova as, "a star that gives birth to stars, as it gives its all to light up the darkness that surrounds us."

Supernova
When a man rubs his wiggy so hard and fast that it reaches a temperature of 5,778° K, then explodes spewing jizz hot enough to destroy Uranus and everything else around it.

A Florida man just created a supernova, destroyed the state and that girls anus.

Supernova
An incredibly attractive woman.

Supernova
The cataclysmic explosion of a massive star. A Supernova may, for a short time, out shine an entire galaxy of a hundred billion ordinary stars. It is thought to leave behind a highly compressed neutron star.

Our Sun could never go supernova because it is simply too small. Only a massive star could die as a supernova.

Supernova
Violent explosion of a star. The star is destroyed, with a remnant forming a neutron star (pulsar) or black hole (collapsar) depending on the residual mass.

There are generally two forms of supernova. One results at the end of the life of a star with at least about eight solar masses, which in a series of progressively shorter-lived and less efficient thermonuclear reactions generates ever heavier chemical elements in layers about the core. Effectively this is a star that lives fast and dies young. When each step in the process chokes up the core with nuclear "ash", contractions follow under gravity, driving up temperatures until they are sufficient to synthesise the next heavy element from this waste product. When the core fills with iron, the end point is reached; it takes more energy to fuse iron into anything heavier than the fusion reaction produces. At this point the star collapses, driving temperatures into perhaps twelve figures Kelvin and triggering an explosion that blows most of the star to smithereens.

A second type occurs in close orbiting binary systems where one star A, being more massive, evolves more quickly to the red giant phase and develops a thin outer envelope and a core rich in carbon. Its companion B skims off the outer layer, grows in mass and itself evolves to the red giant stage. At this point the carbon-rich star A begins reclaiming the hydrogen; when the gas accreting onto it drives its mass over 1.4 solar masses a huge nuclear reaction ensues and A blows itself apart.

Supernova explosions can briefly outshine the combined output of all the stars in at least a modest galaxy. They are also responsible for seeding the Universe with the heavy chemical elements of which the Earth and our very bodies are made.

A supernova is one of the most violent events in the Universe.
