I nice astrophotography night here in Holualoa HI. This is a 3 hour exposure of the Crab Nebula (M1). It's a supernova remnant 6,500 light years away.

This is a 182 minute exposure of M1 using a Seestar S50. I cropped it a bit to show off the nebula, since it was pretty small in the full frame. This is one of my longer exposures and it really improved on the quality vs only 1 hour. It was also a bright full moon.

Butterflies in my stomach, the world seems so vividly coloured, I obsessively keep thinking about you. What are you doing right now, my Star? Neutrons are dripping away, my beloved degenerate fermion gas. A heart full of pions and kaons, you wink at me through 10¹² gauss… My beloved Neutron Star (PSR B0531+21).

On July 4, 1054 CE, Chinese astronomers noticed the sudden appearance of a #star blazing in the daytime sky. They were seeing a distant star exploding as a #supernova. And today, we can see the visible remnant of this dramatic star death. We call it the #Crabnebula. 🌌🦀🔭

I’m getting involved in security standards for web browsers as part of my new role at CrabNebula! It’s important to ensure that the web’s security model is not compromised, as browser engines evolve, new browser derivatives become more popular, and brand new web engines emerge.

Happy new year everyone!!! Nothing says 'BANG' better than a star exploding! This is a star gone supernova! Around 7,000 lightyears away! I managed to get this between 9:30pm & 3:30 am a few nights back, it was incredibly cold 🥶

M1 the Crab nebula. This star was first recorded as a 'guest star' by Chinese astronomers about 1000 years ago. That was the moment it went supernova. The Crab nebula now has a tiny neutron star, less than 20 miles across at its center. Spinning 30 times a second, it emits pulses of radiation that can be detected in our solar system. The fact remains, however, that it's vast distance from us means it didn't actually go supernova 1000 years ago, but actually 7,000 + (our first observation) 1,000 years ago. Space continues to BLOW MY MIND 🤯

Andy Dungan near Cotopaxi, Colorado, captured this image of the #CrabNebula. Did you know it is a #supernova remnant? Thanks for sharing, Andy!

started to tinkering with #tauri yesterday,
and remembered that the team from tauri/ #crabnebula were on #devtoolsfm some months ago.
audio is a bit rough in parts, but it's a nice one!

It worked! #legionofsuperheroes #crabnebula
A panel from the Legion of Super-Heroes story in Adventure Comics #380 (1969, DC Comics). Ultra Boy stands on a tiny island in the centre, swinging a cable around in circles. The space ship at the end of the cable is only a blur as it whizzes around Ultra Boy. He is thinking “COSMIC BOY helped me find enough metal to make this SUPER-CABLE … now it’s up to me to SWING the ship … and slowly accelerate it till it approaches HYPER-LIGHT VELOCITY .. then, if INVISIBLE KID’S calculations are correct …” A picture of the Crab Nebula from Astronomy picture of the day, Aug 24 2025: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap250824.html Alt text provided: “A new composite image of the Crab Nebula features X-rays from Chandra (blue and white), optical data from Hubble (purple), and infrared data from Spitzer (pink). Chandra has repeatedly observed the Crab since the telescope was launched into space in 1999. The Crab Nebula is powered by a quickly spinning, highly magnetized neutron star called a pulsar, which was formed when a massive star ran out of its nuclear fuel and collapsed. The combination of rapid rotation and a strong magnetic field in the Crab generates an intense electromagnetic field that creates jets of matter and anti-matter moving away from both the north and south poles of the pulsar, and an intense wind flowing out in the equatorial direction.”

An image of the Crab Nebula showing a glowing web of purple, blue, and pink filaments of gas and dust expanding outward in a roughly oval shape against a black background dotted with stars. The tendrils form an intricate pattern radiating from the nebula’s bright center.

Another comparison between the Odyssey Pro and the s50. Here is #m1 - #crabnebula. Both images processed by the telescopes. I think the s50 image needed more time. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur #seestar #s50
M1 - Crab Nebula - image processed by the s50. M1, the Crab Nebula, is a supernova remnant from an exploding star. It houses a pulsar and glows from synchrotron radiation. M1 - Crab Nebula - image processed by the Odyssey Pro. The 1054 supernova that created the Crab Nebula was so bright it was visible during the day for 23 days.

Good Monday morning. Before heading off to another busy work week have some time for some observations. First up #m1 - #crabnebula. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
M1 - Crab Nebula - telescope processed image. M1, also known as the Crab Nebula, is the remnant of a supernova explosion that was seen by astronomers in 1054 AD. It's in the constellation Taurus. M1 - Crab Nebula - unprocessed image. The Crab Nebula's explosion was so bright that Chinese astronomers recorded it as a "guest star" visible in the daytime for 23 days in 1054 AD.

An Unexpected Flare from the Crab Nebula

Source: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110523.htm<a href="/hashtag/CrabNebula" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link">#CrabNebulaa#GammaRayFlareR#Pulsar #NeutronStart#FermiLATF#Astronomys#Spacey#Astrophysicso#Science##CosmicMysterycMystery
Comparison of the Crab Nebula's normal gamma-ray emission (left) and its significantly brighter state during a flare in April 2011 (right). The increased brightness, observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, is a mystery, possibly linked to the nebula's central pulsar's magnetic field. The Geminga pulsar is shown for scale.
