Does a nebula ever die?
A nebulae can only die if it's right by a black hole or if all the stars that can be formed are formed which uses up the nebulae
What type of star is Nebulae?
Nebulae are not stars. They are places where stars are formed, so a single nebula would contain lots of stars.
How are nebulae formed?
Nebula are formed when a star explodes, releasing its gas into a gas cloud (the nebula). the nebula then will eventually condense due to gravity and form another star.
Why do astronomers study nebulae?
Becuase nebulae tell us how stars get formed so the composition, density and size of a nebulae cloud says a lot about its age, likelihood of stars forming and the type of stars that might form.
What is the difference between reflection nebulae and emission nebulae?
A nebula is a region of interstellar gas and dust. Emission nebulae are clouds of ionized gas that allow red, blue, and violet light through. Generally, these nebulae appear reddish. Reflection nebulae are clouds of dust that simply reflect light from nearby stars. The dust particles of reflection nebulae usually only scatter blue light, so the appearance is blue. Other types of nebulae don't reflect light. Dark nebulae such as the Horsehead Nebula are so dense that they block light from other sources, such as background emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, or other stars.
How many stars form from nebulae?
it depends on how large the nebulae is. The largest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the largest number of stars while the smallest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the least number of stars. Therefore there is no fixed number for the number of stars that can be formed from a single nebulae (a variable amount of stars can be formed from one nebulae)
What object was once called nebulae?
doppler shifts

How many kinds of Nebula's are there?
*the correct term is nebulae. a nebulae is a could of many gases and dust, where stars are created. TYPES: Diffuse Nebulae- the most common type. it is interstellar, which means among the stars, and not part of any galaxy. Planetary Nebulae- completely unrelated to planets. planetary nebulae is when gas and plasma are formed after certain types of stars die. it sometimes looks like gas planets, like neptune and uranus, hence the name. Reflection Nebulae- clouds of dust that reflect the light of nearby stars, though they are not nebulae, because they do not create stars. Protoplanetary Nebulae- a point in the lifetime of an astronomical object (star). protoplanetary nebulae, or preplanetary nebulae, emit light, much like reflection nebulae Emission Nebulae- a could of ionized gas which emits colorful lights
How are nebulae related to the formation of planetary systems like the solar system?
Solar systems are formed by nebulae. The larger pieces of dust and other materials attract the smaller ones, get bigger, and attract even more pieces of random things, and so on, until a star and sometimes planets are eventually formed.

Stars are formed from clouds of dust and gas called?
Stars. That is how stars are formed. They form from nebulae.
What are nebulaes made of?
Nebulae are made of clouds of hydrogen and other elements or clouds of dust (dark nebulae)
How does gravity affect motion of an object?
The object is accelerated towards the centre of mass of system formed by the object moving and the other object.
