Did the Saturn Nebula Form From a Star's Ejected Layers?

đź’ˇ The Answer

  • Yes, the nebula formed when a low-mass star ejected its layers into space.
  • This process created the glowing shell we see now.
  • The star's core collapsed into a white dwarf.
  • Such planetary nebulae last only tens of thousands of years before dispersing.
