Explosions in space are often referred to as supernovae or space bursts. These phenomena can occur when stars reach the end of their life cycle and explode in a burst of energy, releasing shock waves and radiation into space.

Why can nuclear explosions on the sun not be heard on earth?

Sound cannot travel through the vacuum of space, so we cannot hear nuclear explosions on the sun from Earth. Sound requires a medium to travel through, like air, and space is empty. Additionally, the sun's explosions produce vibrations in the form of electromagnetic waves, which we can detect but not hear as sound.
