Orion Nebula Research Paper

The first destination will be to Mars. Mars is the second planet after Mercury in the solar system, but in terms of the sun it is the fourth planet nearest to it. The distance between Earth and Mars is maximum 0.00000102529 and minimum 0.00000062363 light years. It is unknown who the first person discovered Mars. In 1659, an astronomer named Christian Huygens discovered the Syrtis Major on the surface of Mars. Moreover, another astronomer named Giovanni Schiaparellin in 1877 discovered various lines that cross one another and claimed that these lines were water passages created by intelligent beings. Mars is sometimes called the “Red planet” and its name comes from the Roman god of war. The reason the planet is reddish is because its surface is made of iron oxide. It is considered a ‘Earth-like’ planet, which means it has the same structure and composition like Earth. Similar to Earth, the …show more content…
The Orion Nebula (Messier 42, M 42, or NGC 1976) is a “diffuse” nebula positioned in the Milky Way and it is located in the south of Orion’s Belt in the constellation of Orion. The first person to discover Orion Nebula is Nicolas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc in 1610. It is seen to the naked eye at night and it is the brightest nebulae. The distance between the Earth and Orion Nebula is 1,344 +or- 20 light years. It is 2000 times the mass of the sun and referred as the Great Nebula in Orion or the Great Orion Nebula. It is the most nebulae that is examined and photographed by people at night and the most deeply studied cosmic features. This nebula has helped researchers to understand the process of how stars and planets are formed from failing clouds of gas and dust. My decision to take the passengers to the Orion Nebula is because I want the passengers to see how stars the planetary system is molded. Orion Nebula is observed by using a telescope and it was first seen in 1966. The Orion Nebula could even be seen using
