About this image

What's the pleural of nebula?

A) Nebulas?
B) Nebulae?
C) Nebuli?
Anyway there are two of them, IC1805 and IC1848 and I stick to the belief, passed on to me by my long departed friend, Dick Chambers, that pronunciation doesn’t matter, which I always found odd coming from Dick who was a real stickler for ‘doing things right’ – I suspect he wouldn’t be so generous when it comes to the spelling…
