The Crab Pulsar was the first pulsar for which the spin-down limit was broken using several months of data of the LIGO observatory. Most pulsars do not rotate at constant rotation frequency, but can be observed to slow down at a very slow rate (3.7 × 10 −10 Hz/s in case of the Crab).
The Crab Nebula, and the Crab Pulsar within it, is an intense space X-ray source. It is used as a standard candle in the calibration procedure of X-ray instruments in space. However, because of the Crab Nebula's variable intensity at different X-ray energies, conversion of the Crab to another units depends on the X-ray energy range of interest.
Pulsar wind nebulae evolve through various phases. [2] [5] New pulsar wind nebulae appear soon after a pulsar's creation, and typically sit inside a supernova remnant, for example the Crab Nebula, [6] or the nebula within the large Vela Supernova Remnant. [7] As the pulsar wind nebula ages, the supernova remnant dissipates and disappears.
An optical pulsar is a pulsar which can be detected in the visible spectrum. There are very few of these known: the Crab Pulsar was detected by stroboscopic techniques in 1969, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] shortly after its discovery in radio waves, at the Steward Observatory .

Dolphin VR is a third-party project aimed to extend Dolphin with the ability to play games "in virtual reality with accurate life-size scale, full FOV [field of view], a 3D HUD, independent aiming, and the ability to look around." [127] HTC Vive and Oculus Rift are supported. [128] PC Gamer tested a few games with Dolphin VR.

The Crab Nebula is a pulsar wind nebula associated with the 1054 supernova.It is located about 6,500 light-years from the Earth. [1]A near-Earth supernova is an explosion resulting from the death of a star that occurs close enough to the Earth (roughly less than 10 to 300 parsecs [30 to 1000 light-years] away [2]) to have noticeable effects on Earth's biosphere.
