What is the HTML5 canvas?

I'm a little confused to what HTML5 canvas is. I've been told it is JavaScript, but it seems to be a much bigger deal?

  1. What makes it different than javascript?

  2. Why is it so amazing?

  3. Does it do other things than JavaScript?

The canvas is basically an img element that you can draw on using javascript.
