Nebulosa del Cangrejo M1 NGC1952

Primer objeto, no cometario, del catálogo de Charles Messier, nebulosa situada en la constelación de Tauro, a unos 6300 años luz. Es el resto de la supernova SN 1054 cuya explosión permaneció visible 22 meses, su descubrimiento permitió deducir que las explosiones de las supernovas producen estrellas de neutrones, llamadas púlsares, en este caso púlsar del Cangrejo, que gira sobre sí mismo 30 veces por segundo expandiéndose a unos 1500 Km por segundo, lo que ha permitido deducir que la nebulosa se formó unos 900 años atrás.

Análisis recientes de los documentos históricos han encontrado que la supernova que creó la nebulosa del Cangrejo probablemente ocurrió en abril o principios de mayo de 1054, alcanzando su máximo brillo con una magnitud aparente entre –7 y –4,5 en julio, siendo por aquél entonces más brillante que cualquier otro objeto celeste en la noche, exceptuando la Luna. Gracias a las observaciones escritas de los astrónomos del Extremo Oriente y Oriente Medio en 1054, la nebulosa del Cangrejo se convirtió en el primer objeto astronómico donde se pudo reconocer una relación con una explosión de supernova.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
