You may not see this alert on the news tonight, but here at Mommies In Orbit, I can just feel it coming on, Supernova Alerts. It’s nearing the end of Summer Break and my two asteroid kids are getting restless. A supernova is one of the most explosive events that occurs at the end of a star’s life cycle. As we leave elementary school and enter into the Middle School orbit, I can feel the energy beginning to build. If the particular star is huge, it’s core collapses and then releases tons of energy. This is exactly what’s been happening right here at home, can you feel it?
