Orion
The great Nebula of Orion is a beautiful
nebula in the scabbard of Orion's sword. The Trapezium can be clearly
seen surrounded by nebulas clouds. This nebula is around 1 600 light years
away and has the ability to make about 10 000 Solar Masses.

| Eta Carina & The Keyhole Nebula
Eta Carina is a star that went Super Nova in the 1700's. We see it has a very bright, fuzz star. In fact we are actually seeing all the material thrown out from the star when it went nova, the star still burns inside this fuzziness! The Keyhole Nebula is beside Eta Carina, forming a dark region in the shape of a keyhole! |
