A mistake: Crab nebula reference[edit]

Hello authors, I spotted a mistake in this otherwise very interesting diagram. The Crab nebula is not the remnant of Kepler's nova (or Kepler's star, 1604), but of the 1054 supernova. Thanks for creating the beautiful visual. MMP 50.217.229.226 09:14, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your feedback. I had not intended to suggest that the Crab Nebula be the remnant of Kepler's Star. I intended that Kepler's Star to be an example of a supernova and the Crab Nebula to be an example of a supernova remnant. Nevertheless, I can understand that readers may interpret it as you have, so have changed Kepler's Star to SN 1054. Cheers, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 15:30, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
