What Is A Nebula?

These can be some of the most amazing sites in the whole universe, but what even are they? Today I dive deep into the many different types of nebulas, from the classic diffuse nebula, to supernova remnants, all the way to dark nebulas, all with the amazing help of Space Engine to shows us these structures in 3D.

I was expecting “This video was sponsored by Nebula” or something.

If you can't see the pattern my man's girl is his universe
So basically his the backgrounds match

What a way to do a face reveal and I guess a girlfriend reveal?

[fy]

My man just did the most casual face-reveal ever

I love this, another geography YouTuber who‘s obsessed with space!

[thedpg]

My man just wanted to flex he had a girlfriend

[spoinkable]

Him: "Teehee look at my cute relationship."

Me: oh no, he's taken

Im disappointed that ur not on nebula cuz this video would have been great for an announcement like that

[slaviansky]

Fyi, the most of the visuals in this video were made in Space Engine, which is a giant atlas of the universe where you can visit its every corner with fascinating procedure generated or registered stars, planets, nebulae etc.
I highly recommend trying it, you will not be dissapointed :)

Apoptotic Nebula  (from Ancient Greek, apóptōsis, meaning "falling off").

I find it so relaxing to look at those nebulas

[RishiKumar-iens]

I would’ve called the “donut nebula” the “Jack-o-Lantern nebula”. Looked like a candle within an open pumpkin to me, and the idea of it eating itself is pretty creepy and made imagery more relevant to me 😊😊.

remember when you were 8 years old and learned that the sun will destroy earth in -insert very large number- years and you just lost your mind like fuck what are we gonna do

Wait a minute, don’t tell me you just summed up the basis for all abstract expressionism in one line:
“Somehow they manage to be both abstract but also real, lacking any true definition but nonetheless representing shape and form.”

To be honest (having an astrophysics background), after seeing the tile; I glanced at my keyboard because I expected I was going to have to write a long winded thing with corrections that most would not appreciate but I'm happy say that i'm quite happy.
Perhaps the only thing I would say is that a 'White Dwarf' is (most probably) not a 'final state'; it should become a 'Black Dwarf' or a Blackhole, or a Black Dwarf and then a Blackhole.

9:00 I love how you give the viewers a moment to enjoy these beautiful images, show this man some love people!

And that amazing music as well, truly awesome

In my math notebook from my junior year of high school I ended up making a lot of small doodles (though shockingly I wasn't a bad student or a particularly avid artist), and one of them that I distinctly remember making was a pencil-and-eraser reductive drawing of the Carina Nebula, which at the time I was rather proud of. Thanks for bringing back that memory!


(Also, the existence of a "Manatee Nebula" makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside)

11:16 lets just go with “Death Star Nebula”

[saims.]

This has to be sponsored by nebula, the streaming service.

I'm not sure why, but the moments in your video when it's just the music mixed with the compilation of the different nebulas being shown, gives me a huge dump of dopamine lol.. They each have an incredibly epic vibe..
