A solar nebula is made of (roughly) the same chemical composition as a star, namely:
70% Hydrogen
28% Helium
2% random molecules, for example Carbon-12 and Lithium.
Some examples of different nebulae include the Orion Nebula, the Crab Nebula, the Eagle Nebula, and the Helix Nebula. These nebulae vary in size, shape, and composition, but they are all vast clouds of dust, gas, and plasma in space.
Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn were formed from the light gases of the outer solar nebula. Their composition is primarily hydrogen and helium, with traces of other gases.
Yes, an M-class planet can survive in a nebula, especially if it orbits a small star. The planet's ability to maintain its atmosphere and conditions for habitability would depend on factors such as the density and composition of the nebula, the intensity of radiation from the star, and the planet's distance from the star. If conditions are favorable, the nebula might even provide some protection from cosmic radiation, allowing the planet to thrive.
A large amount of dust and gas in space is commonly referred to as a "nebula." Nebulae are often the regions where stars are born or where remnants of dead stars exist. They can vary in size and composition, and some are visible from Earth, such as the Orion Nebula.
Yes, a nebula is a cloud of gas and dust in space. Nebulae are often birthplaces for stars and can have various shapes and colors depending on their composition and the processes happening within them.
clouds of dust and gas
The composition of the Solar Nebula, with materials such as gases, dust, and ice, largely determined the characteristics of the planets. These materials and their location within the nebula influenced factors like temperature, pressure, and density, which in turn affected the formation and composition of the planets.

The temperature of a nebula can vary widely depending on its type. In general, the gas and dust in a nebula can range from a few thousand degrees Kelvin in colder regions to over 10,000 degrees Kelvin in ionized regions, such as emission nebulae. In contrast, molecular clouds, which are dense and cold, can have temperatures as low as 10 to 30 degrees Kelvin. Thus, the heat of a nebula is influenced by its composition and the processes occurring within it.
