The Crab Nebula is within the Milky Way galaxy, but about 2000 parsecs away from Earth, or about 6300 light years. It is still expanding from the initial supernova (observed in 1054 AD) and is currently about 11 light-years in diameter.
The crab nebula is estimated to be about 6,300 light year away.
The star that created the Crab nebula exploded in the year 1054
Pulsars were discovered in the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant, in 1967. The Crab Pulsar is a neutron star at the center of the nebula that emits beams of radiation, producing regular pulses of light. The high-energy particles and magnetic fields in the nebula power the pulsar's emission.
well the crab nebula is about 6,500 light years away so it would take 6,500 years to get there at the speed of light but we do not have any space craft that travel at that speed so it would take over a billion if not trillion years to get there!
The Crab Nebula was first observed in 1731.
The Crab Nebula is too far away for its energy to have any impact on Earth.
The crab nebula is estimated to be about 6,300 light year away.

"The Crab" is a nebula.
About 360 LY away.
The crab nebula.
The Crab Nebula or SN1054 is still visible with telescopes.
The crab nebula is the debris formed in the supernova explosion.
The Crab Nebula is located in the constellation of Taurus. It is about 6,500 light-years away from Earth and is the result of a supernova explosion that was observed in the year 1054.
The Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula.
The Crab Nebula was formed when it's host star exploded as a supernova [See related question]
The Trifid Nebula is about 5,200 light years away from Earth.
