  6. NGC 55: A Galaxy of Nebulas

    Can you see nebulas in other galaxies? Yes, some nebulas shine brightly enough -- if you know how to look. Clouds of hydrogen and oxygen emit light at very specific colors, and by isolating them, astronomers and astrophotographers can reveal structures that would otherwise be too faint to notice.

  7. CTB 1: The Medulla Nebula

    What powers this unusual nebula? CTB 1 is the expanding gas shell that was left when a massive star toward the constellation of Cassiopeia exploded about 10,000 years ago. The star likely detonated when it ran out of elements, near its core, that could create stabilizing pressure with nuclear fusion.

  8. #Stars ignite in #Nebulas, spending most time as main sequence stars (like the Sun). Their end depends on mass: low-mass stars become red giants then #White #Dwarfs; high-mass stars end in a #Supernova, forming a neutron star or #BlackHole.
