The Mysterious Universe
The Universe is a mysterious place that surrounded by dark matter. I have always been fascinated with shiny colorful things that includes the stars in the Universe. Every night whilst gazing at those stars from my house balcony at level 33 and wishing that I could fly to the moon. I cannot but wonder if we can see right through those stars billion light years away, we would not only wish to travel around the world but our bucket list would include travelling around the Universe across galaxies and nebulae. Perhaps even into the large mysterious Black Hole.
Do You Know What is a Nebula?
A nebula is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionized gases. Most nebulae are of vast size, even millions of light years in diameter. You can see some of them here taken from the book by Govert Schilling "Deep Space - Beyond the Solar System to the Edge of the Universe and the Beginning of Time". Interestingly each nebula was named according to their uniqueness. Do enjoy your journey in space across the galaxies in this exciting journey... a story telling about beautiful nebulae in our universe.
When we talk about our universe, it would be nice to say that the solar system is our cosmic backyard; the Sun is our mother, and the planets are our brothers and sisters. In the Universe, the most photogenic objects are cosmic nurseries aka Nebulae.
The Helix Nebula

The Orion Nebula looks like a huge mosaic showcases the splendor of a stellar nursery at a distance of 1,350 light-years.
The Carina Nebula
The Carina Nebula vaguely resembling an abstract James Pollock painting is studded with loops of glowing gas and small, dark nebulae from which new stars will someday emerge.
The Rosette Nebula
The Rosette Nebula is energised by the ultraviolet radiation of a cluster of young, hot star in the very centre.
The Tarantula Nebula
The Tarantula Nebula was named after its spidery appearance in the Large Magellanic Cloud is one of the grandest star-forming regions in the local Universe. It is 160,000 light years away.
The Pelican Nebula
The Pelican Nebula are glowing gas sillhouted against tendrils of dust.
The Horsehead Nebula
The Horsehead Nebula shows a delicate interplay of bright glowing gas and dark-absorbing dust creates the illusion of a horse's head protruding from a cloud deck.
The Cat's Eye Nebula
The Cat's Eye Nebula is around 3,300 light years away with a beautiful symmetry.
