The law of conservation of mass states that matter can never be created or destroyed, only rearranged in space and changed into different forms. Therefore, when a star or other celestial object is destroyed, its matter has to continue existing, and so takes the form of a nebula, a shapeless cloud of gasses, until gravity can pull it into a discernible shape.
"Nebulae" is the plural form of the Latin word "nebula," which means cloud or mist. In astronomy, nebulae refer to massive clouds of gas and dust in outer space.
No, planetary nebulae are not sites for planet formation. Planetary nebulae are the outer layers of a dying star that have been expelled into space, while new planets form in protoplanetary disks around young stars.
Nebulae are large clouds of dust and gas in space where stars are born. Within a nebula, gravitational forces can cause the gas and dust to collapse and form a protostar, which eventually ignites nuclear fusion and becomes a star. Therefore, nebulae are the birthplaces of stars, and stars are formed from the material within nebulae.
The different types of nebulae include emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, and dark nebulae. Emission nebulae are clouds of gas and dust that emit light, reflection nebulae reflect light from nearby stars, and dark nebulae are dense clouds of dust that block the light from behind them.
The main types of nebulae are emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, dark nebulae, and planetary nebulae. Emission nebulae glow with their own light, often due to hydrogen gas being ionized by nearby stars. Reflection nebulae reflect light from nearby stars. Dark nebulae are dense clouds of dust that obscure light. Planetary nebulae are the ejected outer layers of dying stars.
Stars form in a 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)
Most stars came from Nebulae.
"Nebulae" is the plural form of the Latin word "nebula," which means cloud or mist. In astronomy, nebulae refer to massive clouds of gas and dust in outer space.
Most of the nebulae that exist now are formed from the expelled remnants of dead stars. The gas that made up the original nebulae form with the Big Bang.
