Dying Star - UE4 VFX

Hey all, wanted to post up this visual effect I've been working on in last few days here, critique is welcomed and appreciated

It looks really cool to me especially when things fly in the direction of the camera. Some sort of fast implosion before the big last explosion would also look nice but I am no astrophysicist to know what would be the most probable realistic look of this

I also wanted it to have a strong and quick implosion just before the explosion too, but adding more effects just ended up badly over cluttering that stage. Probably would look ok if I removed another part and then added in the implosion, but that's sacrificing one thing for another
