In particular you will use information on the Crab Nebula (the 1054 aD supernova registered by Chinese astronomers) to derive its distance: an example of how some very important information may be gained from very simple arguments and geometry. coverage.waveband: Optical coverage.waveband: X-ray 6/24185
