Star splash

Explosive and thermonuclear in nature. In the toughest part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The beam of radiation emitted during an unpredictable, most powerful flash. It's truly a dangerous and amazing sight. Perhaps a star is collapsing? The force of a surge often illuminates entire galaxies, making hundreds of billions of stars visible for a few moments. These outbursts are the brightest incidents in our Universe today. Despite its catastrophic nature, this process can rightfully be called the ancestors of life. The old dies, but a new one is born.
