Hypernovas, pretty much a natural doomsday galaxy ending supernova. Imagine a supernova so powerful, it can clean the entire milky way galaxy of life if it exploded in our galaxy. Due to the amount of radiation.

Imagine a supernova so powerful, it can clean the entire milky way galaxy of life if it exploded in our galaxy. Due to the amount of radiation.[/QUOTE] A Hypernova wouldn't wipe out all life in the galaxy, it would only be very deadly for nearby star systems. The closest stars scientists believe could go hypernova any time soon is Eta Carinae, and it's "only" 8000 light years away, which isn't close enough to do any damage to us. But a hypernova, just like a supernova, can be lethal to us in the form of producing a gamma-ray burst, which is a very narrow beam of gamma radiation shot out like a bullet travelling at the speed of light from the collapsing star. If this burst of radiation hit Earth, it would end all life on earth. It would strip away the ozone layer leaving any life that didn't die from the initial burst left to die slowly from extreme amounts of radiation beaming down on them. Gamma-ray bursts are some of the brightest and most energetic events we have observed, to put in perspective, most of the gamma-ray bursts we have witnessed have originated in galaxies million and even billions of light years away. Hypernovas are really cool and mindblowing, but they're not really dommsday weapons ready to kill all life in the milky way and the chance of the GRB it could produce hitting us is very, very, [B]very[/B] slim.
