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

Astronomers saw this type of nebula in earlier telescopes and found many indistinct, cloudy forms. They called such objects “nebulae” – Latin for clouds. Some of the fuzzy objects resembled planets, and these earned the name planetary nebulae. Planetary nebulae like the one in this Reel represent the final stage in a medium-sized star’s life.
