which because of the RBMK reactors'design flaws created more reactivity in the nuclear core of reactor number 4. The resultant power surge caused an immense explosion that detached the 1000-ton plate covering the reactor core releasing radiation

A few seconds later a second explosion of even greater power than the first blew the reactor building apart

which was still operating at the time of the explosions. The explosions killed two plant workers who were the first of several workers to die within hours of the accident.

For the next several days as emergency crews tried desperately to contain the fires and radiation leaks the death toll climbed as plant workers succumbed to acute radiation sickness.

Astronomers witness biggest star explosion: Nature Newsastronomers have watched the violent death of what was probably the most massive star ever detected.

The supernova explosion, which lasted for months, is thought to have generated more than 50 Suns'worth (1032 kilograms) of different elements,

The explosion dubbed SN2007BI was spotted as part of a digital survey to hunt for supernovae at the Palomar Observatory near San diego, California.

Gal-Yam and his colleagues report that the explosion was probably that of a supermassive star, at least two hundred times the mass of the Sun1.

The explosion generated several Suns'worth of radioactive nickel-56 and vast quantities of other lighter elements, such as carbon and silicon.

Gal-Yam says that it is the radioactive decay of the nickel that kept the explosion glowing for months.

New research from the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University shows that not only can grains of dust form in gigantic supernova explosions they can also survive the subsequent shockwaves they are exposed to.

which are massive stars that die in a gigantic explosion. But how do the elements grow into'larger clumps'like cosmic dust grains?

even though dust grains composed of heavy elements would form in supernovae the supernova explosion is so violent that the grains of dust may not survive.
