Simple arguments demonstrate that the rate of supernovae within a redshift horizon of z ∼`2 is at least of the order of 1010 yr−1 or 1000 s−1. This rate could be enhanced by more than an order of magnitude if the supernova rate in the early Universe is enhanced as predicted by star formation models, metallicity observations and the recent observations of an abundance of faint blue galaxies at high...
