Bubble Nebula

Resource added September, 2023

Full description

Do big, massive stars burp? Well, they do. There is this star (about 45 times bigger that of the Sun) that is pushing Hydrogen out of the way and makes it glow. This is happening in the overall direction of Cassiopeia the Queen. The result? The Bubble Nebula!
