Astronomy Is Awesome Poem by Spock the Vegan

Astronomy Is Awesome

Rating: 5.0


The Orion Nebula is vast,
A giant remnant of the past.
Its light has traveled 1500 years,
One million stars garner cheers.

The Veil Nebula is even bigger,
From an explosion of extra vigor.
From a star that went supernova,
Brighter than a comet's coma.

Many others were seen by Hubble,
One from a star in trouble.
As the star is making rubble,
The Cat's Eye Nebula makes a bubble.

The distance to the Cat's Eye nebula is estimated at 300 light years. Its age is estimated to be 1000 years.
