NGC 3582 - Read more below 📖👇 This nebula is located approximately 7,500 light-years away from us and forms part of a much larger star-forming region known as the Carina OB1 Association. With the dimensions comparable to other large nebulae, NGC 3582 is a place where new stars are born. It's known for its bizarre structures known as cometary globules, which are dense clouds of gas and dust shaped by intense radiation from nearby young stars. These globules are considered star-forming regions t

Feast your eyes on this cosmic Compass constituent! The planetary nebula NGC 2818 is located in the southern constellation Pyxis, the Compass. Planetary nebulae contain clouds of dust and gas formed from the outer layers of a star cast off during its death. Over tens of thousands of years, planetary nebulae gradually fade, while the hot, remnant stellar core cools off, becoming a white dwarf. Scientists theorize that a similar fate will befall our Sun in about 5 billion years, when it runs out o
