Of all the images I am looking forward to with the new space telescope, it is the remaining structure left by that great event which was observed in 1987.

In 1990, I considered stellar evolution in terms of two large external rings and a smaller intersecting ring. It became the basis for the proposal that not all stars are remnants of supernova, but transition events which create the building blocks for
the birth of a solar system. This would include our own solar system.

It is why the images in May 1994 were dramatic, at least for me, as it allowed for a more focused attempt to put the rings in context of an antecedent approach. It still remains that way, despite its speculative nature, although the foundations found in
pre-supernova stars like Eta Carinae make it easier to work with-

It is far more helpful to search for stellar evolution at different stages rather than the current (and flawed) perspective) of looking out into the past. The pre-supernova and post-supernova stages are more suitable to consider the emergence of a solar
system rather than the death of a star and that includes our own solar system.

The materials for the planets are not found in arbitrary supernovae of the past, but integrated into the antecedent supernova star as a transition phase to a working solar system where the mass loss of the star goes into the formation of the planets
while retaining the structural integrity of the star itself. Of course, all stars are different, so perhaps a select few go through this process.

The remnants of a past transition of our own Sun are suggested by the existence of the Kuiper belt and Oort cloud-

The context here is the remaining structure of SN1987a so although supernova are dramatic, they still retain organised structures from their antecedent state.

I wish the discussion were more lively as this allows for more speculative approaches while still retaining physical considerations of supernovae and the birth of a solar system.
