Supernova in a Cavern: A Photorealistic Scene

Photorealistic interior of a damp, mineral-rich cave at night as a massive supernova erupts at the heart of the chamber. The explosion bathes jagged rock walls, stalactites, stalagmites, and a shallow underground pool in intense light—orange and red plasma at the core, with electric blue and magenta corona. Realistic rock textures, mineral veins, and crystal formations catch the glow and reflect on wet surfaces. Dynamic volumetric lighting, dusty air, and swirling motes create depth and atmosphere. A wide-angle, low-angle composition from the cave floor looking up toward the ceiling where the glow originates, with beams slicing through the darkness. High dynamic range, micro-detail, lens flare, and realistic physics of light propagation in a cave to convey a dramatic, cinematic feel.
