WHAT IS SUPERNOVA
REMNANT?

Supernova remnant are the structure
resulting from giant explosions of massive
stars such as “NEBULA”. The size is about
10 light years.IT plays a vital role in the
evolution of galaxies. Beside ,they provide
much of the energy that heats up the
ISM[INTERNATIOAL SAFETY
MANAGEMENT]and are believed to be
responsible for the acceleration of
GALACTIC COSMIC RAYS .They last for
approximately 200 years

THE N 63A

by the Hubble Space
Telescope .This
remnant looks a lot
like the iconic video
game gobbler “PAC-
MAN”.
This remnant is known
as N 63A

BOOK TITLE

According to NASA supernovas are known to trigger star
and planet formation in their surrounding areas by blasting
out gas and heavy elements. However, in this case the
powerful shock waves appear to have stalled star
formation in the region by dispersing the surrounding gas
that was already in the process of birthing new stars. The
N 63A is still relatively young, and as it settles down into
its final configuration it will likely kick-start its own star-
forming region in the future
