What is the name for a supernova cloud?
Nebula. Some nebulae are formed as the result of supernova explosions. The material thrown off from the supernova explosion is ionized by the supernova remnant. One of the best examples of this is the Crab Nebula, in Taurus. It is the result of a recorded supernova, SN 1054, in the year 1054 and at the centre of the nebula is a neutron star, created during the explosion.
What year did a star in the Taurus constellation undergo a supernova?
1054 - The Crab Nebula in the constellation of Taurus. [See Link]
Was the first neutron star observed in a supernova remnant?
Yes. The Crab Nebula neutron star. A neutron star found in the middle of the Crab Nebula - a Nebula formed from the 1054 supernova event.
If the supernova was visible in 1054 when did it actually occur?
Nobody can tell when the FIRST Supernova occurred, but the first recorded Supernova was in 185SN 185 was a supernova which appeared in the year 185, near the direction of Alpha Centauri This "guest star" was observed by Chinese astronomers and possibly been recorded in Roman literature. It remained visible in the night sky for eight months. This is believed to have been the first supernova recorded by humankind.However the first stars formed around 400 million years after the big bang. These were supermassive stars - called population III stars - they were much larger than stars today, so their life times would have been a few million years. They would have exploded as supernova and ended as black holes. These black holes could have been the starting blocks for the galaxies.
How did supernova 1987 get its name?
The name is formed from SN (yes SuperNova), the year of discovery, then followed by a one or two letter designation. SN is optional.The first 26 of the year get designated with an upper case letter from A to Z. then, pairs of lowercase letters are used, starting with aa, ab.... etcetera Historical supernovae were known simply by the year they occurred: SN185, SN1572 SN1604. Since 1885, the letter notation was used.
Using the velocity of light devise a strategy for finding out when the supernova actually occurred relative to when the Chinese astronomers saw the explosion in 1054 Use the equation drt?
The distance to SN 1054 is about 6,300 light years. The date it was seen is 1054 x - y =z
Why is the Crab Nebula considered a supernova remnant?
Because it IS a supernova remnant. It's the visial remains of a star that expolded and was seen in 1054. Designated SN 1054.
Grab nebula was first seen on earth in 1054 how long did it take to get here?
Supernova(SN) 1054 Crab Supernova was first seen in 1054, it is estimated to be 6,500 light years away, so 6,500 years

1054 - The Crab Nebula in the constellation of Taurus. [See Link]
What was the Crab Nebula caused by?
The Crab Nebula was formed when it's host star exploded as a supernova [See related question]
What is the event know as in 1054?
There were several events in 1054. One of them was the supernova known as SN 1054, which became the Crab Nebula, NGC 1952. Another was the East-West Schism that divided Christianity between the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church.
Was the first neutron star observed in a supernova remnant?
Yes. The Crab Nebula neutron star. A neutron star found in the middle of the Crab Nebula - a Nebula formed from the 1054 supernova event.
Who first recorded this event the crab nebula?
The discovery of the crab nebula, a supernova remnant, seems to correspond to a bright supernova recorded by Chinese astronomers in 1054. The nebula was later described by John Bevis in 1731.
What is a guest star was that seen exploding over China in the year 1054?
A "guest" star is the name for the original star, before it exploded as a Supernova. Because the Supernova is the explosion and has no real physical relation to the Star, it is termed "guest" star.
How long ago did the Crab Nebulae explode?
The Crab Nebula or M1 has a supernova designation of SN1054 (SN=Supernova) and (1054 was the year is was observed).It is located about 6,500 light years from us, so it would have exploded about 6,500 years ago - give or take a few hundred years.
What is 30 percent of 1054 ton?
30 percent of 1054 tonne = 316.2 tonne 30% of 1054 tonne= 30% * 1054 tonne= 0.30 * 1054 tonne= 316.2
