When massive stars die, they do so in spectacular fashion—erupting as supernovae that can briefly outshine an entire galaxy. These cosmic explosions come in several distinct types, each revealing something different about how stars live and end. In this class, we’ll explore what triggers supernovae, how these blasts forge and distribute the heavy elements that shape planets and life, and how astronomers use them as cosmic mile markers to map the vast distances between galaxies.
Class level: Introductory - This class is recommended for guests of any background. Classes will be held in Mitchel (smaller) building.
Tickets: Non-members - $25/class, Members - $20/class, Student (with valid ID) - $10/class
