This image by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) and MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument) shows different structural details of the Crab Nebula. The observations were taken as ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team of astronomers has captured an unprecedented, ethereal view of the Crab Nebula. "The JWST’s sensitivity and spatial resolution allow us to ...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has gazed at the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant located 6,500 light-years away in the constellation Taurus. Since the recording of this energetic event in 1054 CE ...

A team of scientists used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to parse the composition of the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant located 6,500 light-years away in the constellation Taurus. A team of ...

Nasa’s Hubble Space Telescope has imaged the supernova Crab Nebula’s ‘beating heart’, an inner region that sends out pulses of radiation and tsunamis of charged particles. The Hubble Space Telescope ...

This multiwavelength image showcases many different details in the Crab Nebula. The remnant of a 1054 supernova, the Crab Nebula contains a large fraction of heavy elements and the process that ...

University College London (UCL) astronomers have detected noble gas molecules in space for the first time in the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant. Led by Professor Mike Barlow of the UCL Department of ...

The groundbreaking supernova discovery could help solve two cosmic mysteries, one of which has puzzled astronomers for nearly 1,000 years. Supernovas are among the biggest and most spectacular ...

It is one of the most famous nebulae known to astronomers. But the Crab Nebula can now be seen like never before thanks to NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. The remarkable object is the remnant of a ...

Astronomy is only possible as a field of study because the universe is so predictable. Just as plants and animals can be categorized into easily-identifiable species and families, stellar objects, too ...

Astronomers have observed the first example of a new type of supernova - the explosion of a star. The discovery confirms a prediction made four decades ago, and could lead to new insights into the ...
