NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“M1: The Exploding Crab Nebula” is copyrighted by AATB, Caltech, David Malin, Jay Pasachoff. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Crab Nebula formed from a star that exploded over 900 years ago, throwing its outer layers into space. The inner core collapsed to form a neutron star, which we see as a pulsar. This pulsar, at the nebula's center, flashes about 30 times per second.
