A supernova of the .

A supernova of the Vorash star.

A supernova occurs when a supergiant star has reached the end of its life. Some implode and become a black hole while others explode and their resulting particles form planets. It is almost certain that the atoms that make up our bodies were once parts of stars. In 2001, SG-1 made Vorash's sun go into premature supernova. (SG1: "Exodus")
