How close is the closest nebulae to our solar system?
The nearest supernova, or more correctly supernova remnant is the Vela [See Link]. It occurred around 11 - 12,000 years ago. Not only is it the oldest, but it is also the closest at about 800 light years.
Distance to eagle nebula?
The Eagle Nebula is around 7,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Serpens. This distance is so vast that it would take thousands of years for our fastest spacecraft to reach there.
What is the biggest nebula known?
The Tarantula Nebula, also known as 30 Doradus, is one of the largest and most active star-forming regions in our nearby universe. It is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy, around 160,000 light years away from Earth. The Tarantula Nebula is roughly 1,000 light years in diameter.
Which star is the closest distance to the Sun 27.3 light years 11.9 light years 70.2 light years 59.5 light years?
if those are the only 4 options then the star that is 11.9 light years away is the closest
Which is the closest star to earth not counting the sun?
The closest star to earth is the sun. The next closest is a red dwarf star called Proxima Centauri, much further away. The sun is around 8 minutes away at the speed of light, while Proxima Centauri is around 4.2 years away at the speed of light (light years).
How far away from earth are nebulae?
Nebulae can vary in distance from Earth. Some are close, within a few hundred or thousand light-years, while others can be many thousands or even millions of light-years away. The closest known nebula to Earth is the Helix Nebula, which is about 700 light-years away.

How far is trifid nebula from the Earth?
The Trifid Nebula is about 5,200 light years away from Earth.
Which galaxy is the Orion nebula in?
The Orion nebula is part of our own galaxy (the Milky Way). The Orion nebula is about 1500 light-years away from us. Our galaxy is about 100000 light-years across.
What is the closest star to Betelgeuse?
The closest star to Betelgeuse is approximately 643 light-years away. This star is located in the star cluster known as the Orion Nebula, where it is part of a group of young, hot stars.
Is the eagle nebula in your solar system?
No, it is about 7,000 light years away
How far away is the crab nebula?
The Crab Nebula is within the Milky Way galaxy, but about 2000 parsecs away from Earth, or about 6300 light years. It is still expanding from the initial supernova (observed in 1054 AD) and is currently about 11 light-years in diameter.
How far are the Pillars of Creation?
The Pillars of Creation are located in the Eagle Nebula, which is about 7,000 light-years away from Earth.
Distance to eagle nebula?
The Eagle Nebula is around 7,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Serpens. This distance is so vast that it would take thousands of years for our fastest spacecraft to reach there.
How many light years away from earth is the Gemini constellation?
Gemini is a temporary alignment of stars and open clusters with different distances. The closest star is GJ 251, at 18.2 light years. The open clusters are M35 aka. NGC2168 at about 2800 light years (?), NGC2158 at about 11700 light years, and the "Clown Face" or Eskimo nebula at 2900 light years.
How long would it take to get to the crab nebula from earth?
well the crab nebula is about 6,500 light years away so it would take 6,500 years to get there at the speed of light but we do not have any space craft that travel at that speed so it would take over a billion if not trillion years to get there!
