I learned that this fog like substance has the familiar shape of a bubble therefore it was given the scientific name of "The Bubble Nebula". I also learned that while it looks delicate, it is actually 10 light-years in diameter and it is caused by the violent blowing of winds. I also learned that it contains an O-type star which is so hot that it destroys the planet forming disks in other stars The surrounding molecular cloud of the Bubble Nebula is made up of dense gas and dust clouds. Lastly, I learned that the Bubble Nebula lies only 11,000 light-years away toward the constellation Cassiopeia.
