Description

I find it fascinating that this super nova remnant is almost 10 light years across, and only about a 1,000 years old...thats a fast rate of expansion. It looks small, but if our nearest stellar neighbor went supernova and genrated a nebula like the Crab, it would take only a few hundred years before our solar system was engulfed. The "brain stem" feature is visible at upper left-an OIII extension that is quite dim.

I decided to post this SHO palette image on its own page becuase I think the bicolor HaOIII M1 deserves a post of its own....I have never really been partial to the SHO palette for M1. I think this image suffers from a low resolution Ha channel. Seeing was very poor for Ha, but good for OIII and SII. Shame
