Five Magical Nebulas

Five Magical Nebulas

Five Magical Nebulas

What exactly is a Nebula? Nasa explains them like this:

“A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (more than one nebula) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova.” NASA

Most nebulae are of vast size, some are hundreds of light years in diameter. A nebula that is barely visible to the human eye from Earth would appear larger, but no brighter, from close by.

Scroll down to see some of the spectacular Nebula’s and their fast stats kudos of Astronomy Is Awesome below.

Interesting Infographic On Gravity

Interesting Infographic On Gravity

Interesting Infographic On Gravity

The physics behind gravity largely determines the make-up of Earth, with tides, weather formations, transport and beyond all determined by our attraction to Earth’s surface.

But, when gravity leaves us, why do we float?. What would life be without gravity?

When asked about what it feels like to walk on the moon at one-sixth of Earth’s gravity, Buzz Aldrin once described the atmosphere as being filled with “magnificent desolation”.

He explained what it felt like to take each step, saying it’s “perhaps not too far from a trampoline, but without the springiness and instability”.

When NASA’s Scott Kelly returned from almost a full year in space seemingly grew two inches while he was up there for a still unexplainable reason.

As fun as experiencing no gravity sounds and looks, there can be some unwanted side effects resulting from it. Lean about “The Science of Weightlessness” in this interesting infographic created by Security Scale Service.
