‘Black dwarf supernova’: Physicist calculates when the last supernova ever will happen – Science Daily
New theoretical research finds that many white dwarfs may explode in supernova in the distant far future, long after everything else in the universe has died and gone quiet.
The end of the universe as we know it will not come with a bang.
