The theory of neutral currents and its possible application to the development of unified gauge theory, explanation of new resonances, cosmological origins, stellar cooling, supernova evolution to a neutron star rather than a black hole, and neutrino physics is reviewed. The existence of strangeness-conserving neutral currents and weak decays is acknowledged, and the discovery of charmed particles would contribute to a unified theory of weak and electromagnetic interactions. Neutral currents can effect the time at which neutrinos leave thermal equilibrium as the early universe expands and cools. Reflection, absorption, leakage, energy loss, coherent scattering of neutrinos, neutrino pressure and neutrino escape in a supernova environment are discussed, along with the effect of neutrinos and neutral currents in the ejection of the star's envelope. Possibilities of a superunified gauge theory incorporating gravitation, with the aid of neutral current theory, are considered.
