The Sun is obviously the hottest thing in our Solar System, but it is a mere thermos when compared to several other stars and stellar phenomena, particularly supernovas.
A supernova is a transient event that marks the last evolutionary stage in the life of a star. The star’s life ends dramatically with a colossal explosion – the largest in space. The temperatures at the core during the explosion soar up to 100 billion degrees Celsius, 6000 times the temperature of the Sun’s core.
