*Crab Nebula - M1* The Crab Nebula (catalogue designations M1, NGC 1952, Taurus A) is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula in the constellation of Taurus. The common name comes from William Parsons, 3rd Earl of Rosse, who observed the object in 1840 using a 36-inch telescope and produced a drawing that looked somewhat like a crab. The nebula was discovered by English astronomer John Bevis in 1731, and it corresponds with a bright supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers in 1054. The nebula was the first astronomical object identified that corresponds with a historical supernova explosion. *Observation data* Distance to Earth: 6,523 light years Distance: 6500±1600 ly (2000±500 pc) Constellation: Taurus Absolute magnitude (V): −3.1±0.5 Apparent dimensions (V): 420″ × 290″ Coordinates: RA 5h 34m 32s | Dec +22° 0′ 52″ *Physical Characteristics* Radius: ~5.5 ly (~1.7 pc) Absolute magnitude (V): −3.1±0.5 Notable features: Optical pulsar Designations: Messier 1, NGC 1952, Taurus A, Sh2-244 *Captured on*: __Feb. 14, 2021... *Equipment*: __TSOptics Photon 12" F4 Advanced Newtonian... __TSOptics 0.95 reducer and coma corrector... __SoftwareBisque Paramount MX Mount... __Nikon D750 DSLR Camera .... *Processing Details*: __48 x 30 sec. each frame (24 min. data) __17 dark frames __ISO-1270 __Stacked in DSS __Processed in PixInsight __Enhanced in LightRoom & Snapseed *Location:* __Chiguru Farm, Bilikal Forest, Karnataka *Sky Conditions* __Bortle Scale 3.8 __Clear Sky __Few surrounding villages lights interference #CrabNebula #astrophysics #nightsky #astronomy #softwarebisque #astrophotography #starrynight #cosmos #AstroPhotographyIndia #nikon #Travel #karnataka #india © Vijay Kapoor Follow My Instagram for More pics: http://Instagram.com/lunar_mountains_climber https://www.instagram.com/p/CLqqYeNJVcZ/?igshid=qfm1kjml0apz

The #SupernovaPictograph in #ChacoCanyon depicting what many experts believe was a #Supernova first observed on 4 July 1054 A.D. world wide by many cultures notably the Chinese. It was observed in broad daylight for almost a months and for longer than a year at night. The #CrabNebula is believed to be the remnants of this star. I hiked to this panel 48 hours ago on my journey to move from Cedar City, Utah to the Phoenix Valley in Arizona. This was my first journey to the site.

Messier-1: The Crab Nebula. What a story: this is the remnants of a nearby star that exploded in 1054. We know the exact timing because ancient Chinese astronomers documented everything. So, what you see here is the explosion in progress, but almost a thousand years later. I photographed the Crab Nebula from my balcony in Strasbourg France in February 2022. #messier1 #crabnebula #nebula #supernova #messierobjects #astrophotography #astrophotographie #astronomy #astronomiefrance (at Strasbourg, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CafAxYAscDM/?utm_medium=tumblr

OWL. At least it looked like an owl when I took the shot. Not so sure now.

Discovery Alert! In a new image released on Oct 30, 2023, Crab Nebula's Hidden Wonders Exposed by James Webb's Infrared Gaze. Read the full article here

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has taken us on an incredible journey to the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant located 6,500 light-years away. 🌟

Unveiling never-before-seen details and revealing the secrets of this cosmic wonder, Webb's NIRCam and MIRI instruments have provided us with a new perspective in infrared light. The Crab Nebula's intricate structure, from gaseous filaments to dust particles and synchrotron radiation, is a sight to behold.

En el año 1054 de nuestra era astrónomos chinos y árabes vieron aparecer en el cielo una nueva estrella tan brillante que incluso era visible de día, pero solo duró 22 meses. Ahora sabemos que se trató de una supernova, cuyo remanente formó la Nebulosa del Cangrejo M1. Fue una foto difícil porque se encuentra relativamente baja en el cielo santiaguino, pero se pueden ver los filamentos que alguna vez fueron parte de la estrella muerta. Como dato curioso, la supernova dejó en el centro de la nebulosa un púlsar.

The Crab Nebula

To Sleep in the Shadows  Dense is the umbra: A crawling shadow, Sombre as dusk, Cascading tones of darkness Into a matt, flat pool.   The sable hands of night Reach out with raven Strokes of unseen fingers To steal the colour and Snuff out the light.   Sightless, underexposed eyes, With veiled, visionless irises, Dilate vainly, attempting To capture any light From thieving…
