A Supernova marks the end of the lifetime of a massive Star.
Explanation:
A Supernova marks the end of the lifetime of a massive Star, about 2 to 3 times more massive than our Sun.
A Star like our Sun after it completely burns Hydrogen to Helium will rearrange and shed its outer layers forming a nebula.
A Star, about 2 to 3 times the mass of our Sun, when it burns all of its hydrogen will rearrange itself and collapse on its core in a ciolent Supernova explosion.
