Normal sudoku rules apply.
Divide the grid into galaxies: orthogonally connected groups of cells that have 180 degree rotational symmetry about their centers (marked with a small dot). Digits may not repeat in galaxies, and all galaxies must be at least 2 cells in size. Galaxies do not overlap and all cells must belong to a galaxy (except the supernova cell).
Supernova: a single, unmarked cell which does not belong to any galaxy. Starting from the supernova cell, draw EIGHT lines in every direction which extend until they reach the grid boundaries. Digits on the lines must decrease or stay the same (Slow thermos where the supernova cell represents the tip). The supernova cell must be deduced by the solver.
Quadruple clues: Digits in circles must reside within the surrounding 4 cells.
Have fun, leave a comment if you enjoy the puzzle!

Nice puzzle. Not exactly sure how the (numerical) break-in was supposed to go though. Having limited the possible paths down to two, it felt like I had to trace the most likely bad path way too far to find the expected conflict.

This is my first 4-star rated puzzle that I've been able to solve, and it was so hard! The galaxy part was actually rather easy, but the numbers, ugh! It tooj me 140 minutes lol.
Thank you so much for the puzzle, it was very enjoyable.
