Question: Have you seen any supernovae?

I’ve seen plenty of supernova after they happened.. I’ve not been lucky enough to seen one actually blow up 🙁
In all honesty though, the supernova is most beautiful ‘after’ it explodes. That’s when you have this beautiful cloud of glowing gas that is absolutely HUGE! It makes for an awesome sight. If you are interested look up ‘supernova remnant’ or ‘nebulae’ on google – you will see some amazing stuff! 🙂 well worth it i promise!
