Searching for the supernova neutrino background to the universe

It’s a sobering statement that stars like the sun, more accurately all stars will die eventually—yes, even the sun. Don’t panic, though, we still have a good few billion years to go so you will get to the end of this article. The more massive stars die as the dramatic supernovae explosions and when they do, they send a burst of neutrinos across the universe.
