A "failed supernova" refers to an event in which a massive star, instead of exploding as a supernova, collapses directly into a black hole or a neutron star without ejecting its outer layers. This can occur in stars that have insufficient energy or mass in their outer layers to produce the explosive conditions characteristic of a supernova.
