This visualization features a three-dimensional multiwavelength representation of the Crab Nebula, an iconic remnant of a star that was seen exploding in the year 1054 AD. This is a view looking into the heart of the nebula, home to its rapidly spinning crushed stellar core, called a pulsar. The torrential outflow of radiation from this magnetic dynamo illuminates the nebula. The visualization is based on images from NASA's three Great Observatories: the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Hubble

Take note! ✏️ The Pencil Nebula was created by a star that exploded thousands of years ago. It's just one part of the huge Vela supernova remnant. The nebula's linear, narrow shape inspired its nickname! The shape also suggests that it's part of the supernova shock wave that recently ran into a region of dense gas, which causes the Pencil Nebula to glow. This nebula resides about 815 light-years away in the constellation Vela. Image credit: NASA and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA); Acknowl
