Magalumin Collapse

The explosive finale.
 
As a massive star reaches the end of its life, it undergoes a dramatic collapse, triggering a supernova that unleashes an immense explosion of energy. The core of the star may become a neutron star or a black hole, while its outer layers are violently expelled into space. This explosion scatters heavy elements like iron and magnesium across the cosmos, enriching the interstellar medium and laying the groundwork for the formation of new stars, planets, and the building blocks of life.
