A three-dimensional model of the [O III] λ5007 line-emitting gas in the Crab Nebula has been developed from imaging spectroscopy taken with the Goddard Fabry-Perot Imager mounted on the McGraw-Hill 1.3m telescope of Michigan-Dartmouth-MIT Observatory. Several interesting morphological features revealed in three-dimensional isophotal displays are discussed.
