Thus, the observation of gamma-ray line emission from a young supernova seems very promising in the near future. The observation, or even a null observation at a low threshold, will give significance in the fields of nuclear astrophysics and supernova theory. The scientific importance of a positive measurement would be analogous with and comparable to the importance of successful detection of neutrinos from the Sun.
