Heavily processed Hubble Space Telescope image of the interior of the Crab Nebula and its neutron star.

The Crab Pulsar and the Crab Nebula. In this image we see a 1-second snapshot of these peaked waves as they reach the NRAO Green Bank Telescope after 6000 years of interstellar travel.

M1, the Crab Nebula.

 

Stack of 12 images, each 1200 seconds (20 minutes) in duration through a 13nm wide Hydrogen-alpha emission line filter. Acquired, guided, calibrated and stacked in MaxIm DL, further processed in PixInsight. This is quite an improvement of the quick combine of 8 images acquired earlier. Halos around brighter stars are internal reflections from the filter..

The Crab Nebula, located in the constellation of Taurus. This wind energizes the nebula, and causes it to emit the radio waves which formed this image.

Image of the Crab Nebula taken from the centre of Manchester. The light pollution in Manchester is very bad and I was surprised to get as good a picture as this.

This new Hubble image - One among the largest ever produced with the Earth-orbiting observatory - shows gives the most detailed view so far of the entire Crab Nebula ever made. The Crab is arguably the single most interesting object, as well as one of the most studied, in all of astronomy. The image is the largest image ever taken with Hubble's WFPC2 workhorse camera. The Crab Nebula is one of the most intricately structured and highly dynamical objects ever observed. The new Hubble image of the Crab was assembled from 24 individual exposures taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and is the highest resolution image of the entire Crab Nebula ever made.

Pretty good result here with drizzle stacking.

Looks better in a larger FOV though..

A small amount of masked Deconvolution applied also.

All set for some SII,OIII...:)

The Crab Nebula - the remnants of a supernova !

Ein sehr schönes Dreieck, bestehend aus unserem Nachbarn dem rotem Planeten Mars dem Krebs-Nebel (M1) und dem Stern Zeta Tauri (Tien Kuan), passte dank Reducer gerade noch auch den Chip der Canon.

Deutsch:

Der Krebsnebel (M1, NGC 1952) ist ein Überrest einer Supernova im Sternbild Stier.

Er entstand aus einer Explosion, die im Jahr 1054 n. Chr. beobachtet wurde.

Im Zentrum befindet sich ein Pulsar, der Materie und Energie in die Umgebung abstrahlt und für die feinen Strukturen im Nebel sorgt.

 

English:

The Crab Nebula (M1, NGC 1952) is a supernova remnant located in the constellation Taurus.

It was created by a stellar explosion observed in 1054 AD.

At its center lies a pulsar that emits radiation and particles, shaping the fine structures of the nebula.

Thanks to the team that produced the original image. I just tweaked it a bit.

This is our version, via our artificial intelligence model, of the image provided by JWST about the Crab Nebula (Messier 1, M1, NGC 1952) on June 17, 2024 at 14:00 UTC.

 

Astronomers have mapped the hot dust emission in these supernova remnants. Represented as magenta-colored vaporous material, the dust grains form a cage-like structure, most evident toward the lower left and upper right portions. Also present inside are dust filaments that sometimes coincide with regions of doubly ionized sulfur (sulfur III) that are green in color. The mottled yellow-white filaments, which form large ring-like structures around the center of the supernova remnant, represent areas where dust and doubly ionized sulfur overlap. The cage-like structure of the dust contributes to some, but not all, of the synchrotron spectral emission shown in blue.

Edited Chandra Space Telescope image of the Crab Nebula. Hubble Space Telescope version.

 

A new composite image of the Crab Nebula features X-rays from Chandra (blue and white), optical data from Hubble (purple), and infrared data from Spitzer (pink). Chandra has repeatedly observed the Crab since the telescope was launched into space in 1999. The Crab Nebula is powered by a quickly spinning, highly magnetized neutron star called a pulsar, which was formed when a massive star ran out of its nuclear fuel and collapsed. The combination of rapid rotation and a strong magnetic field in the Crab generates an intense electromagnetic field that creates jets of matter and anti-matter moving away from both the north and south poles of the pulsar, and an intense wind flowing out in the equatorial direction.

I'm trying out a free trial license for PixInsight, which appears to have far more capabilities than DeepSky Stacker ... and is that much harder to figure out.

 

An example of a cool tool in PixInsight is the background tool, which removed nearly all of the spot-light vignetting that was in the original due to not using flat files or my light pollution filter.

 

(I crudely hid the problem in the original by setting the black point in the brighter part of the noise, which also reduced the detail visible in the image)

 

Capture details are available in the first Crab Nebula photo with the same date in the title.

 

I'm sure there's a hundred things wrong with this as it's my first attempt with PixInsight and I used 30 second sub-exposures, but at this point it's way over my head, I'm happy to have gotten this out of the software thanks to some newbie tutorials on PixInsight's forum.

Finally managed to do a half decent job on the Vixen image as well..

As compared to 1000mm;

First crack at this weak data.

M 1 Crab Nebula with NO coma corrector. ES8f3.9, ASI183mm. 4x60sec

The Crab Nebula is a six-light-year-wide expanding remnant of a star's supernova explosion. Japanese and Chinese astronomers recorded this violent event nearly 1,000 years ago in 1054, as did, almost certainly, Native Americans. This composite image was assembled from 24 individual exposures taken with the NASA Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 in October 1999, January 2000, and December 2000. It is one of the largest images taken by Hubble and is the highest resolution image ever made of the entire Crab Nebula.

Pretty happy with this

Whether it is an improvement over RGB...I am not sure...but am inclined to start thinking I would spend the Lum time on MORE RGB exposures..............
