This nebula was also observed by Johann Baptist Cysat in 1618. However, the first detailed study of the Orion Nebula was not performed until 1659 by Christiaan Huygens, who also believed he was the first person to discover this nebulosity. [11] In 1715, Edmond Halley published a list of six nebulae.
This is a list of diffuse nebulae. Most nebulae are diffuse , meaning that they do not have well-defined boundaries. Types of diffuse nebulae include emission nebulae and reflection nebulae .
