Nebulae
A nebula (; or nebulas) is a distinct luminescent part of interstellar medium, which can consist of ionized, neutral, or molecular hydrogen and also cosmic dust. Nebulae are often star-forming regions, such as in the Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula. In these regions, the formations of gas, dust, and other materials "clump" together to form denser regions, which attract further matter and eventually become dense enough to form stars. The remaining material is then thought to form planets and other planetary system objects. Most nebulae are of vast size; some are hundreds of light-years in diameter. A nebula that is visible to the human eye from Earth would appear larger, but no brighter, from close by. The Orion Nebula, the brightest nebula in the sky and occupying an area twice the angular diameter of the full Moon, can be viewed with the naked eye but was missed by early astronomers. Although denser than the space surrounding them, most nebulae are far less dense th ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

List Of Diffuse Nebulae
This is a list of diffuse nebulae. Most nebulae are diffuse, meaning that they do not have well-defined boundaries. Types of diffuse nebulae include emission nebulae and reflection nebulae.

List Of Largest Nebulae
Below is a list of the largest known nebulae so far discovered, ordered by actual diameter. This list is prone to change because of inconsistencies between studies, the great distances of nebulae from our stellar neighborhood, and the constant refinement of technology and engineering. Caveats Nebulae have no standardized boundaries, so the measurements are subject to revision. Furthermore, scientists are still defining the features and parameters of nebulae. Because of these rapid developments and adjustments, this list may be unreliable. Lyman alpha nebulae around quasars can have sizes between 15 kpc and 460 kpc. Especially large Enormous Lyα nebula (ELAN) can have large sizes of ≳100 kpc. Farina et al. 2019 table 5 has an extensive compilation of Lyman alpha nebulae around quasars. For now this list contains only the largest ELANs, with sizes larger than 300 kpc. List See also * List of largest cosmic structures *List of largest known stars * List of largest plane ...

List Of Protoplanetary Nebulae
This is a list of protoplanetary nebulae. These objects represent the final stage before a planetary nebula. During this stage, the Asymptotic giant branch, red giant star begins to slowly expel its outermost layers of material. A protoplanetary nebula usually glows by reflecting the light from its parent star. This stage is usually brief, typically lasting no more than a few thousand years.

List Of Supernova Remnants
This is a list of observed supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Milky Way, as well as galaxies nearby enough to resolve individual nebulae, such as the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Andromeda Galaxy and some nearby galaxies. Supernova remnants typically only survive for a few tens of thousands of years, making all known SNRs fairly young compared to many other astronomical objects.
