NASA. DEEP SPACE. LARGE FORMAT. After many years of study by the HUBBLE space telescope, the Crab Nebula region now reveals new secrets through the newly revealed transparency of its clouds, formed by the remains of an exploded star. The Crab Nebula lies 6500 light-years from Earth. It is an oval nebula with a complex structure against a black background. On the outside of the nebula, particularly in the upper left and lower left, are curtains of red and orange material, red and orange. Its inner shell shows large-scale loops of yellow-white and green mottled filaments, dotted with tufts and knots. Thin, translucent ribbons of smoky white lie inside the rest, brightest towards its center. The white material follows different directions, including the occasional sharp bend in certain regions of the rest. A light, vaporous cycle of white material surrounds the very center of the nebula. Around and within the supernova remnant are numerous points of blue, red and yellow light. The Crab Nebula is a spectacle of beauty that continues to fascinate astronomers the world over.
