Kepler's Supernova Remnant in X-Rays
Kepler's supernova remnant is the debris cloud from a star that exploded in 1604. Astronomers like Johannes Kepler studied it without telescopes, noting its bright appearance in the constellation Ophiuchus. This X-ray image from the Chandra telescope reveals the shockwaves and heated gas from the explosion. The exact type of star that caused this supernova is still under investigation.
