In the image, it is possible to see the Crab Nebula, officially cataloged as M1, in all its splendor thanks to the high-tech infrared cameras of the James Webb, highlighting the brightness, cloud, and fragmented remnants of the explosion of a massive star in 1054.
In its center, there is one of the most incredible objects known to astronomers, the Crab Pulsar, a neutron star spinning an incredible 30 times per second, visible as a bright point.
The Crab Nebula is the first object on the 18th-century list of Charles Messier, composed of celestial objects that are not comets.
