Image Details:

I captured a beautiful encounter of two celestial bodies early this morning. One is the brightest asteroid - Vesta. The other is the supernova remnant - the Crab Nebula M1. M1 is located in the constellation Taurus. It is the remnant of a supernova that exploded about a thousand years ago and has now formed the very beautiful Crab Nebula. The small straight line in the lower left corner of the picture is the movement trajectory of Vesta. Because this photo was taken from 10:48 pm on January 12 to 3:10 am on January 13, the shooting time lasted for more than 4 hours, so the movement trajectory of Vesta can be clearly displayed.
