How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed and the object it left behind?

How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed? If a supernova always leaves something behind, a white dwarf for example, then what object did it most likely leave behind? How big was that object? What happened to it? What is its current location? What is its current status?How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed and the object it left behind?Our solar system was formed from a giant cloud of gas and dust that was hit by a supernova, or several supernovas. The remains of that supernova(s) could be just about anywhere by now. In the past 5 billion years or so, it could have drifted in any direction and be a quarter of the way across the galaxy. Or it might be just a few 100 light years away.



So the answer is ... nobody knows.How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed and the object it left behind?Where are you getting these questions? I've been a follower of Astronomy since I was a kid and never heard that theory before. There is nothing in our solar system "left over" from a supernova.How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed and the object it left behind?%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;...How large was the star that went supernova from which our solar system formed?...%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;



Our solar system did not from from a supernova.



There are various different ways that a star can finish up. What happens to any particular star depends on its mass.



When a star dies, it does not for something new such as a solar system. Its material is dispered throughout its region of space. The dispersed material may or may not contribute to the formation of a new object.



This is a complex subject, yet fascinating and rewarding. I hope you get to take a basic astronomy course sometime soon.
