Here's an image of M1 - aka the Crab Nebula - a supernova remnant in the constellation of Taurus the Bull. The supernova appeared in 1054 AD. It was visible in daylight and could be seen at night for over a year. It's known as the Crab Nebula and in its center lies the Crab pulsar (a neutron star). M1 is in the constellation of Taurus and lies about 6,500 light-years away.
