Hubble captured Supernova Blast(2020)

 NASA'S Hubble Telescope captured stanning image of Supernova Blast located 2,400 light years away.


Supernova is the explosion of a star the  largest explosion in Space. NASA uses difference types of Telescopes to detect these kind of Supernova and this is one of it's example.



“The name of the Supernova remnant comes from it's position in the northern Constellation of Cygnus( the Swan) where it covers an area 36 times larger than the full moon.”


Original Supernova explosion blasted apart a dying star about 20 times more massive than our Sun between 10,000 and 20,000 years ago. Since then, the remnant has explaned 60 light- years from it's centre. The shockwave marks the outer edge of the supernova remnant and continues to expand at around 220 miles per second explained by NASA.
