My go-to guy for all cosmic things Prof. Geraint Lewis,
astrophysicist at the University of Sydney, returns to unpack a
fascinating New York Times article on a newly observed “onionlike”
space explosion that may reveal a new type of supernova. We dive
into what actually happens when a star dies, the onion-layer
buildup of elements through nuclear fusion, and how these
cataclysmic blasts forge the building blocks of life on Earth.
Plus, we explore what this might mean for the ultimate fate of our
own Sun.
