Hubble Revisits Crab Nebula, Revealing Evolving Gas Clouds After 25 Years

TL;DR
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope released new 2024 images of the Crab Nebula (Messier 1), taken 25 years after the initial look, showing moving gas clouds and changes in temperature, density, and chemistry as the remnant continues to expand (about 3.4 million mph) from its 1054 supernova, located roughly 6,500 light-years away in Taurus.
