What is Nebula. Images of some nebula by Hubble

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. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form. For this reason, some nebulae are called "star nurseries." How do stars form in a nebula? Nebulae are made of dust and gases—mostly hydrogen and helium. The dust and gases in a nebula are very spread out, but gravity can slowly begin to pull together clumps of dust and gas. As these clumps get bigger and bigger, their gravity gets stronger and stronger. Eventually, the clump of dust and gas gets so big that it collapses from its own gravity. The collapse causes the material at the center of the cloud to heat up-and this hot core is the beginning of a star. Some of the most amazing nebula pictured by Hubble in Milky Way Galaxy The Eagle Nebula’s Pillars of Creation (M 16, Messier 16) The dust and gas in the pi...

Collision of galaxies, images taken by hubble

The interaction between galaxies is an on going process in universe. However the merging of big galaxies with each other on average once over the past 9 billion years. But Small galaxies were coalescing with large galaxies more frequently. In fact, our own Milky Way galaxy had several such mergers with small galaxies in its recent past. In the combination of galaxies there is no collision of stars with eath other, it is the dust and other material which collapse and billions of stars are born, mostly in groups and clusters of stars. Some of the images of colliding galaxies taken by hubble This is image of a pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273. The distorted shape of the larger of the two galaxies shows signs of tidal interactions with the smaller of the two. It is thought that the smaller galaxy has actually passed through the larger one. This nearly 300 million light years away from earth. And a part of Constellation "Andromeda" Hubble has captured a...
