A supernova remnant is the structure resulting from the explosion of a star during a supernova event, which disperses the outer layers of the star into space and leaves behind an expanding shell of gas and dust. This remnant is crucial for understanding stellar evolution, as it contributes to the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium and can trigger the formation of new stars.
