A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (pl) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form




Nebulæ was used for both the hardcover sleeve and paperback front cover of the cosmology book titled "Creation of the Universe" (ISBN10: 9971-506009, ISBN13: 978-9971506001) written by two famous astrophysicists Fung Li Zhi and Lee Shu Xian published by World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd, July 1986. This book cover won the 1st prize for the prestigious Cover Design Prize of the same year at the annual Frankfurter Buchmesse in Frankfurt, 🇩🇪.


Coincidentally, these two authors were the cover story of Time Magazine, 🇺🇸 on the day the book was printed (c February)
