  Agreed! Thanks, very much for that link! Youtuber "But Why?" has a great video with animations on core-collapse supernovae: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt-SBT7nNfU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yt-SBT7nNfU

    Wow that was an amazing video, not so much nerd snipped, but nerd nuked.

      Hadn't heard of "nerd sniping" until now. Learn something every day on HN!

I’m really enjoying it ! How well do you think it reflects our current understanding of supernovae ?
