The pulsar in the Crab Nebula is travelling at 375 km/s relative to the nebula. [ 165 ] A long-standing puzzle surrounding type II supernovae is why the remaining compact object receives a large velocity away from the epicentre; [ 166 ] pulsars , and thus neutron stars, are observed to have high peculiar velocities , and black holes presumably ...
In computer jargon, a killer poke is a method of inducing physical hardware damage on a machine or its peripherals by the insertion of invalid values, via, for example, BASIC's POKE command, into a memory-mapped control register.
NGC 6572 is a relatively young nebula, and began to shed its gases a few thousand years ago. Because of this, the material is still quite concentrated, which explains its abnormal brightness. The envelope of gas is currently racing out into space at a speed of around 15 kilometres per second. As it becomes more diffuse, it will dim.
In today's puzzle, there are six theme words to find (including the spangram). Hint: The first one can be found in the top-half of the board. Here are the first two letters for each word: FO. FE ...
