Pluralnebulae(nĕb′yə-lē′)ornebulas A thinly spread cloud of interstellar gas and dust. It will appear as a bright patch in the night sky if it reflects light from nearby stars, emits its own light, or re-emits ultraviolet radiation from nearby stars as visible light. If it absorb...
Nebula is Latin for "mist, vapor, fog, smoke, exhalation," but in an astronomical context, it refers to any celestial object that appears cloud-like when viewed through a telescope. Some nebulas are formed when gas and dust are thrown out during a supernova—an explosion of a dying star...

When it comes to photographingdeep-sky objectsusing a camera and telescope, there are three main types of targets to photograph. These are Nebulae, Galaxies, and Star Clusters. Nebulae are my favorite type of deep-sky object to photograph due to their large size and varying color combinations ...
ANebulais a giant mass ofcloudand dust that can be light-years across, such as the Snake Nebula, which is three light-years in diameter. They can be visible, although not seen clearly by the naked eye. There are five types, or to put it another way, classifications of Nebulas out ther...
Nebulas are one of many galactic phenomena that lie beyond the Kuiper belt. Mysterious and fascinatingly beautiful sights to behold, they have more of a purpose than just painting the galaxy backdrop with color. I’m not a diehard fan of astronomy and to be perfectly honest I find it diff...
Nebulas would certainly be high up on the list. Something like the Double Cluster, and similar, I would imagine being a fun target as well. Even just scanning the Milky Way as it passes overhead. Keep in mind that I am not trying to switch form purely visual to purely NV. Rather, I...
Use left mouse button to select an object, right button to select no object and middle mouse button or SPACE to center on the selected object. Zooming on nebulas or planets is very interesting... Use J, K and L to increment/decrement time speed. Press the F1 key for more help. More ...
I was able to see the bright nebulas with my Maks, I see the Pacman Nebula (NGC 281) in Cassiopeia, and the Caldwell 33 the Eastern part of the Veil Nebula in Cygnus with no filter. And in 19 SQM sky I know it sound crazy but my 5 inch Mak pick it up, lolol ...
emission nebulas are where stars are inside the nebulas. An example of an emission nebula is the Orion Nebula. Radiation and plasma from stars ionise and light up nebulae. They are calledreflection nebulae. The m78. The Trifid Nebula is an example of an emission/reflection nebula....
