COSMIC MESSAGE

The Crab Nebula is the remnant of a star that exploded in 1054, observed by Chinese astronomers. It is still expanding at a thousand miles per second, glowing across the electromagnetic spectrum. At its core is a neutron star that spins thirty times a second, located about 6,500 light-years away in Taurus.
