In Universe Sandbox, a Type Ia supernova is produced when a supernova is triggered for a star with a mass less than 8 Solar masses. If the remnant mass is greater than or equal to 5 Solar masses, the remnant object will be a Black Hole rather than a Star.Ī Type Ia supernova results when a white dwarf gains enough mass to collapse and trigger a runaway thermal reaction. The original Star object will have "Nova Remnant" appended to its name, and its mass will be decreased. In Universe Sandbox, a Type II supernova is produced when a supernova is triggered for a star with a mass of at least 8 times the mass of the Sun. Supernova Clouds and the bright glow of supernovae can be hidden using the Supernovae toggle in the View Settings Menu.Ī Type II supernova results from the collapse of a massive star. Properties related to the original star and the resultant clouds, including the Supernova Type, Cloud Mass, and Origin location, are located in the Nova tab in the properties panel of any of the Supernova Cloud objects.
