    Coll, you know a lot about space
    So is it possible that a pluto sized supernova crashing/exploding into earth and destroy it?

        A average supernova is 8 to 15 solar masses that explodes to 15000km to 40000km
        And Pluto is 1100km

          Not entirely sure what you mean with both of them together.

          But if pluto crashed into Earth, it wouldn’t necessarily destroy the Earth but it would wreck the planet badly if it were an impact. But it wouldn’t impact the planet, it would instead reach the roche limit and be torn apart into rings.

          A nearby supernova for example exploding and reaching Earth would inevitably vaporize most of the solar system. Destroying all life and destroying atmospheres.
