Back in 1054, the light from a star that exploded thousands of years ago finally reached earth’s sky – seen by people all over the world. With the advent of telescopes and better technology, the remnants of that exploded star were named the Crab Nebula. Astronomers still study it today, as the nebula keeps expanding.
I love that with a little internet search I can see that the explosion was recorded in China, Japan, in European countries, and the Middle East. A nicely written, simple explanation that has many uses in various levels of science classrooms – anywhere teachers talk about space, stars, telescopes.
