Because nebula, like galaxies, do not have a defining edge, it is difficult to determine the exact size but an estimate is the closest you'll get.

However, in this case, the difference is large enough.

The Tarantula Nebula is about 15 times larger than the Carina Nebula.

  • Tarantula ~ 1,000 light years across
  • Carina ~ 65 light years across.

Are nebulaes in the solar system?

No. A nebula is generally much larger than a solar system. We believe that our sun and solar system came to be when a nebula collapsed under the influence of gravity, and the gas of the nebula became the Sun and our planets - and everything else.


What is the difference between the Helix Nebula and the Ring Nebula?

The Helix Nebula is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Aquarius, while the Ring Nebula is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Lyra. The Helix Nebula appears more like a disk or helix shape, while the Ring Nebula appears as a ring or donut shape due to its orientation.


What is the oldest nebula?

Nebula are clouds of interstellar hydrogen and other gasses that span light years. Some may be dozens or hundreds of light years across. Galaxies were once referred to as nebula. These are vast collections of stars, often a hundred thousand light years in diameter (as is our own beloved Milky Way) or more.


Which is the largest the sun or the diffuse nebula?

The diffuse nebula is significantly larger than the Sun. Diffuse nebulae can span several light-years in diameter, containing vast amounts of gas and dust, while the Sun is about 1.4 million kilometers in diameter. In terms of volume and mass, a diffuse nebula far surpasses the Sun, making it a much larger structure in the universe.
