Supernova: Crab Nebula

 
            The photo that I selected is of Crab Nebula’s supernova. The photo caught my eye immediately with its extravagant colors and mixtures of gasses. The supernova is made from the remnant of a destroyed star with massive clouds of debris. I wonder whether the supernova keeps the same shape as the star or immediately expands? When the photo was taken, did the Crab Nebula supernova still exist? What elements make the beautiful colors of the supernova?

  1. Hi Sam, for some reason your photo didn't post, and you are also missing a link! If you are having technical problems, see me to figure out how to fix it.
