Planetary Nebula

The Carina Nebula (also known as the Great Nebula in Carina, the Eta Carinae Nebula, NGC 3372, as well as the Grand Nebula) is a large bright nebula that has within its boundaries several related open clusters of stars.

The Eskimo Nebula (NGC 2392), also known as the Clownface Nebula or Caldwell 39, is a bipolar double shell planetary nebula (PN).

So most people have no idea of the difference between an emission nebula and a planetary nebula.

So most people have no idea of the difference between like, an emission nebula and a planetary nebula.

like the Eagle Nebula. We see stars dying.

The Ring Nebula (also catalogued as Messier 57, M57 or NGC 6720 ) is a planetary nebula in the northern constellation of Lyra.

NGC 1555, sometimes known as Hind's Variable Nebula, is a variable nebula, illuminated by the star T Tauri, located in the constellation Taurus.

The Horsehead Nebula is approximately 1500 light years from Earth.

This spiral, for example, is based on a real nebula.

He is best known for discovering the Crab Nebula in 1731.

The nebula was discovered on October 11, 1852 by John Russell Hind.

The Orion Nebula (also known as Messier 42, M42, or NGC 1976) is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way south of Orion's Belt in the constellation of Orion.

The nebula lies at an estimated distance between 6,500 and 10,000 light years from Earth.

The pulsar at the heart of the Crab nebula, for example, rotates 30 times per second.

Evolution Interstellar clouds like the Orion Nebula are found throughout galaxies such as the Milky Way.

A byproduct of star formation, solar systems form in the collapse of the surrounding solar nebula.

And we can see places where stars are forming, like the Eagle Nebula. We see stars dying.

It is a reflection nebula, caused by dust reflecting the blue light of the hot, young stars.

That's just what happened about 12,000 years ago to the star that spawned the famed Helix Nebula.

And here's a beautiful picture of the Andromeda Nebula, which is our closest, largest spiral galaxy to the Milky Way.

M78 is the brightest diffuse reflection nebula of a group of nebulae that include NGC 2064, NGC 2067 and NGC 2071.

Location LBV 1806 20 lies at the core of radio nebula G10.0 0.3 and is a component of the star cluster Cl 1806 20, itself a component of W31, one of the largest H II regions in the Milky Way.
