Star dies in monstrous explosion
From BBC News Online
Quote:
A massive star about 150 times the size of the Sun exploded in what could be a long-sought new type of supernova, Nasa scientists have said.
Supernovae occur when huge, mature stars effectively run out of fuel and collapse in on themselves.
But scientists believe this one was obliterated in an explosion which blasted all its material into space.
