production of nubula vs nebulae

[nucleardream]

Does a nubula hold the potential of the formation of one star, and only one star? Or, for example, could the cloud of gas ultimately form numerous stars? A nebulae means multiple nebula, and so then I could understand the formation of multiple celestial entities. Do all the elements in a nubula eventually converge into a single "point," if you will, being the beginning of a single star?

It depends on the size and structure of the nebula. Astronomers believe stars form out of the densest regions of nebulae, the molecular clouds. The molecules form when atoms within the the densest areas collide. When the density becomes great enough, stars may form and fusion can begin, given the correct, delicate balance bewteen gravity and fusion. The clouds are primarily hydrogen, helium and a few other random atoms.

the pleiades (feel free to correct my spelling) is a group of stars believed to come from 1 nebula. there are like 20 stars in the pleiades but the majority of these are very far away. the front 7 (which can be viewed with the naked eye giving it the nickname 'the seven sisters') were supposedly born out of one nebula as they are so close in astronomical terms. for now at least. give it a few million years and the pleiades will vanish
