My version of the new space photos

Many of you probably already know this but we are literally made from star dust. All the elements within us comes from stars that have exploded. They are the foundries where all elements that exists were produced. The elements in us the earth & everything else owes their existence to exploding stars.

And it’s the nebula’s, as shown above, where stars are birthed. These structures are the creators and they are still busy making new stars.

Stars make all the elements through nuclear fusion turning Hydrogen into Helium to Lithium, … and finally Lead. Then they blow up spewing out there content. The remaining elements are produced through other mechanism, involving stars, but are too complicated to explain here.

Anyway, we would not be here without the Nebula’s. Now that's a lot to ponder!
 

The photographs of these structures have been colorized for our benefit to assist in visualizing the various elements within the gas clouds or nebula. These structures are also huge spanning many light years. If you were in space or looking through a telescope you would never see these colors. But still these structures are awesome!
I thought nebulas were blue. At least they are in the opening credits of Star Trek Next Gen! The Enterprise passes by a beautiful blue poisonous gas nebula cloud. :sneaky:
