The Dark Energy Camera at NOIRLab’s Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile has been used to capture an amazing view of a star-forming region known as the Lobster Nebula. It is 8000 ...

Many nebulae are known as star-forming regions where new stars are formed. The Crab Nebula, located 6,500 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus, is one of the most favourite spaces ...

This Hubble mosaic is the highest resolution image ever made of the entire Crab Nebula, which is located 6,500 light-years away. These opaque, dark knots of gas and dust called "Bok globules" are ...

This image from ESO’s VISTA telescope captures a celestial landscape of vast, glowing clouds of gas and tendrils of dust surrounding hot young stars. This infrared view reveals the stellar ...

This spectacular image from the VLT Survey Telescope shows the Cat’s Paw Nebula (NGC 6334, upper right) and the Lobster Nebula (NGC 6357, lower left). With around two billion pixels this is ...

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 supernova remnant ...

ABSTRACT Published images of the Crab Nebula have been scanned and measured to derive proper motions, the age of the nebula, and its point of origin. Astrometric reductions provided rms errors ranging ...
