Crab Nebula
In late 1968, David H. Staelin and Edward C. Reifenstein III reported the discovery of two pulsating radio sources "near the crab nebula that could be coincident with it" using the Green Bank radio antenna. They were given the designations NP 0527 and NP 0532. The period and location of the Crab Nebula pulsar NP 0532 was discovered by Richard V. E. Lovelace and collaborators on November 10, 1968, at the Arecibo radio observatory.
