00:32 - What an excellent tidbit. "Nebula" is the Latin for "Mist" and it was named so quite literally due to the fact it looked like space mist due to a lack of technology. I love the simplicity of this, brilliant.

Its quite amazing to find out that we basically just started searching the universe in terms of the years humans have been on earth. I mean, just a 100 years ago we found out that other galaxies with stars and planets were a thing lol.
