[Jerry Lodriguss <jml@astropix.com>]

Tom Polakis just sent me this:

 >Kitt Peak visitor program manager Adam Block has registered a CCD image of
 >the Crab Nebula he took this year with one taken by the 4-meter telescope
 >in 1973, and created an animated GIF of the motions of the filaments.  The
 >image is at:
 >
 >http://www.noao.edu/outreach/aop/observers/m1animation.gif
 >
 >The 1973 image was recorded on Ektachrome film at the prime focus of the
 >4m, while Adam's 2001 image was taken with a CCD camera and a more portable
 >16-inch SCT.
