PIX4583130: Visible Crab Nebula - Infrared and X - The Crab Nebula - M1, the Crab Nebula, is the rest of a supernova that exploded on July 4, 1054. It is located about 7000 light years from Earth in the constellation Taurus. At the heart of this nebula is a pulsar. To obtain this photo, three spatial observatories combined their observations: the Hubble telescope for the visible part (here in red and yellow), the Chandra telescope for the X-ray data (blue) and the Spitzer telescope for the infrared image (purple). The pulsar is the bright spot in the center of the image. The Crab Nebula (M1) is a supernova remnant at about 7,000 light - year from Earth in the constellation Taurus. The star explosion occured on July 04 1054. At the center of this nebula lies a pulsar. This composite image uses data from three of Nasa's Great Observatories. The Chandra X - ray image is shown in blue, the Hubble Space Telescope optical images are in red and yellow, and the Spitzer Space Telescope's infrared image is in purple / Bridgeman Images

PIX4583135: Crab pulsar in nebula M1 - The Crab pulsar: This image from the Hubble space telescope shows the central region of the Crab nebula or resides its pulsar. The pulsar is visible in the center of the image. It is a very dense neutron star from the explosion of a massive supernova star. This star quickly rotates on itself developing a powerful magnetic field, emitting beams of light and radio waves. M1 is located about 6000 light-years in the constellation Taurus.. While many other images of the famous Crab Nebula have focused on the filaments in the outer part of the nebula, this image shows the very heart of the Crab Nebula including the central neutron star - it is the rightmost of the two bright stars near the centre of this image. The rapid motion of the material nearest to the central star is revealed by the subtle rainbow of colours in this time-lapse image, the rainbow effect being due to the movement of material over the time between one image and another / Bridgeman Images

NGC 2158, lower right, is weaker and is only observed at the telescope. M35 is about 2800 years of light from Earth and is about 110 million years old. M35 (NGC 2168), at left, is a spectacular large open cluster containing about 200 stars located in Gemini. Shining at magnitude 5, it is visible to the unaided eye off the foot of Gemini. It is accompanied by a jewel - like smaller companion, open cluster NGC 2158, seen at the lower right of the photo / Bridgeman Images

PIX4568196: Open cluster NGC 3293 in Carene - Open star cluster NGC 3293 in Carina - Star cluster located in the constellation Carene about 8500 years ago - light from Earth. Unlike the Sun, many stars are found in brilliant clusters such as NGC 3293 where they spend their lives. At birth, which should have been at much the same time for all the stars in NGC 3293, the most massive stars are hot and very luminous and therefore appear as the brightest blue stars. With time they deplete their supplies of nuclear fuel, hydrogen. This evolutionary process involves cooling, so that the stars become redder, and would ordinarily disappear from view, but they also swell to gigantic proportions and so remain visible. The bright orange star in NGC 3293 is the member of the cluster which has aged fastest. This cluster is in the constellation of Carina at a distance of about 8500 light years / Bridgeman Images

PIX4568246: Open cluster NGC 4755 - Jewel Box - The Jewel Box star cluster - The NGC 4755 cluster is located in the constellation of the Southern Cross at a distance of 6400 years - light from Earth. The bright orange star on the top right is Kappa Crucis, a supergiant red star. This cluster contains about fifty stars formed about 16 million years ago. This close-up of the center of the cluster was obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope. This image is a “” close - up 'view from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of NGC 4755, or the Jewel Box cluster. Several very bright, pale blue supergiant stars, a solitary ruby - red supergiant and a variety of other brilliantly coloured stars are visible in the image, as well as many much fainter ones, often with intriguing colours. The huge variety in brightness exists because the brighter stars are 15 to 20 times the mass of the Sun, while the dimmest stars are less than half the mass of the Sun. This is the first image of an open galactic cluster with imaging extending from the far ultraviolet to the near - infrared. NGC 4755 (Caldwell 94) is called the Jewel Box, based on John Herschel's comment in the 1830's that it looked like a superb piece of jewelry. There are about 50 stars in this cluster which formed some 14 million years ago. Most of the cluster members are blue giants which in a few million years will exhaust their hydrogen fuel and become red giants on their way to a cataclysmic end as supernovae. One red giant can already be seen at the center of the cluster (top right) / Bridgeman Images
