Description
"Supernova Remnants"
It is the remnant of the famous supernova explosion that occurred in the year 1054 A.D., which was recorded in five separate accounts from Chinese astronomers in the Far East. Other observations of the explosion were recorded by Japanese and Arab stargazers. It is recorded that for several days, even at nighttime it was almost as bright as daytime and you could read without the use of a candle or fire. The star that went supernova remained visible in the night sky for 653 days (almost 2 years!) The remnant of that exploding star, also called M1, NGC 1952, is what is commonly called the Crab Nebula in is located in the Taurus constellation.
