The luminosities of type la supernovae (SNe), the thermonuclear explosions of white-dwarf stars, vary systematically with their intrinsic color and the rate at which they fade. From images taken with the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), we identified SNe la that erupted in environments that have high ultraviolet surface brightness and star-format...
