Optical observations of PSR J2021+3651 in the Dragonfly Nebula with the GTC

PSR J2021+3651 is a 17 kyr old rotation powered pulsar detected in the radio, X-rays, and \(\gamma\)-rays. It powers a torus-like pulsar wind nebula with jets, dubbed the Dragonfly, which is very similar to that of the Vela pulsar. The Dragonfly is likely associated with the extended TeV source VER...
