1.
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.

A spell used in Final Fantasy VIIby the final boss Sephiroth. He summons a massive comet into the solar system, which proceeds to demolish the outer planets up to Jupiter. It then crashes into the sun, causing it to go supernova and destroy Mercury and Venus. As the sun continuously expands toward Earth, Sephiroth basks in the sun itself, while your party is damaged heavily. The animation for the spell takes nearly 2 minutes to complete.
"Dude, cure your party or Sephiroth will cast Supernova and pwn you."

Violent explosionof 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 Kelvinand triggering an explosion that blows most of the star to smithereens.
A second type occurs in close orbiting binarysystems 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 Earthand our very bodiesare made.
A supernova is one of the most violent events in the Universe.

Hot in the the sense of looking good or being cool; mainly used as a nickname. Suno for short.
Tay, You are hotter than hot; you're supernova.

The Supernova is when one sticks their hands in side of a womans vagina and then opens hands completely for ultra pleasure or pain, and also may move hands to enhance stimulation.
Hey i feel like dying of pain and pleasure, give me a Supernova.

After a hard night at the bars/clubs with no luck, a man will return to his abode and cry. While he is crying, he will whack off to internet porn. At the moment of ejaculation, a tear might hit the semen in midair. This magical moment is called a supernova.
Last Sunday at 3 AM I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if a million voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear a supernova has happened.

7.
The explosion of a small star, in which the star expands and implodes reaching a mass 1000 times that of the Sun.
Have you ever seen a supernova? Neither have I.
