This paper presents a completely analytic solution to the equations of general relativity describing the evolution of a type II supernova. In our model the core collapses within 1s, leaving a 1.3 \(M_0\) remnant. Shortly afterward 10.6 \(M_0\) is ejected to infinity, and 0.17 \(M_0\) is radiated away in the form of neutrinos. The distance of the edge from the center increases proportionally to the two-thirds power of the time. The luminosity decreases proportionally to the inverse four-thirds power. Although the runaway solution was modified by the exploding rather than a static envelope, it must still be excluded by adjusting initial conditions. Its character is changed from an exponential to a very large power (55) of time. The removal of a degree of freedom by this exclusion leads to physically non-sensical results such as negative luminosity. The inclusion of a term describing motion of the mantle due to neutrino interactions provides the additional degree of freedom necessary for physically reasonable results.
