Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A novae in astronomy means an explosion in the white dwarf star which had tapped enough gas from a companion star,hence it releases an incredible amount of energy which is Over a million times brighter than it normal stars.

A super novae on the other hand is a cosmic explosion that can be a billion times brighter than the normal.

From this one can see that a perculiar similarity between a novae and super novae is that both generate huge explosion and bright Ness, and a major difference is super novae release huge amount of brightness and energy more than the novae
