Supernova of 2387

In 2387, a star in close proximity to Romulus went supernova and threatened the galaxy. To stop the threat, Ambassador Spock used red matter to create a black hole which consumed the star's energy. Before he could successfully carry out his mission, however, the supernova reached Romulus, destroying the planet and all of its inhabitants. Among those killed were the wife and unborn child of Nero, who swore vengeance against Spock, Vulcan, and the Federation for letting his world die. While Nero confronted Spock, both of their ships were pulled into the black hole which had consumed the star, sending them back in time and resulting in the creation of the alternate reality. (Star Trek)

Background

Having a supernova threaten the entire galaxy is a physical impossibility under normal circumstances due to the laws of physics limiting its expansion rate to below the speed of light, and the expansion of the blast wave would result in it eventually dissipating, making it virtually impossible for it to cause severe damage to a warp-capable society such as the Romulan Star Empire, let alone the entire galaxy. This discrepancy was explained several different ways in non-canon works.

In the comic book series Star Trek: Countdown, this star and its system were named "Hobus". The comic explained that the star's galactic threat came from its unusual ability to transform anything it contacted into energy, which it then consumed, increasing its power and causing it to expand farther and faster throughout the galaxy.

The Star Trek novelization instead stated that the star had merely threatened systems in its own vicinity rather than the entire galaxy.

A third explanation appears in the backstory of Star Trek Online, which states that the shockwave propagated through subspace at faster-than-light speeds. Also in the game's backstory, a scandal occurred several years later involving rumors that the Vulcan Science Academy knew about the instability of the star but did nothing until Spock attempted to save Romulus with the Jellyfish. The scandal resulted in several resignations and sowed seeds of distrust towards the Vulcans.

It is also confirmed by the Featured Episode series "Cloaked Intentions" that Remus was also destroyed, however the Romulans and Remans still continue their prejudices towards each other. It is also revealed that the supernova was not a natural occurrence, but was engineered by then-Praetor Taris, who did so under orders from the Iconians.

Sector 1156 star

Sector 1156 star

A star in Sector 1156

This star in Sector 1156 was orbited by the D'Arsay archive which at first appeared to be a rogue comet. (TNG: "Masks")

Alastria orbited these two suns. (VOY: "Prime Factors")

Borg star

Borg Star

A star in Borg territory

The USS Voyager passed by an unknown star while traveling through Borg territory. (VOY: "The Gift")

Judging from the color, the Spectral class of this star may be A0 or it may be a white dwarf.

A star in the Delta Quadrant

In 2372, the crew of the USS Voyager encountered the rogue comet housing Quinn close to this star. (VOY: "Death Wish")

Star in Swarm species space

Star in Swarm space

A star in Swarm species space

This star was located in or close to Swarm species space. It was orbited by at least one planet. Tom Paris and B'Elanna Torres investigated the star system in a shuttle in 2373.(VOY: "The Swarm")

Supernova of 2373 (natural)

Supernova star 1, The Q and the grey

A star in the Delta Quadrant

This star went nova in 2373. The rare event was observed by the the crew of the USS Voyager. (VOY: "The Q and the Grey")
