Can a nebula filter be used for a simple 35mm camera?

Sorry if I come off as a newbie at this, but i've always loved star gazing and especially looking and studying what goes on in our universe. I recently found out about nebula filters, but I'm having a bit difficulty understanding exactly how they are used. I know that they are used in telescopes, but unfortunately I don't have one at the moment. I do however have an old nikon from the 90's with a decent scope on it.
I was just curious if they have nebula filters out for regular film cameras, if so, how much? And does exposure time have anything to do in developing the photos? Or should a regular night time exposure be sufficient? Or since (i'm assuming) nebula filters provide an immediate image of the sky, should the exposure be less?
If no such thing exists, feel free to just tell me, i'm just curious and can't find anything of the sort on the internet.

Nebula filters are for use with telescopes. I don't see how they would have much effect on the film in a 35 mm camera unless it was attached to a telescope.

If you have $100 to make a test, by all means buy one

I'm sure anything is possible, I bet there's some cheap ones in eBay to play with

Nebula filters are used to enhance details of certain nebulas emitting visual light influenced by their particular chemical composition (e.g.oxygen, hydrogen). Because the chemical composition of nebulas differ, there are several types of nebula filters, passing different wavelengths according to your needs or interests.

Since we're talking about visible light, it makes no difference whether you use a film or digital camera: what can be seen can be recorded, regardless of the recording medium.
A good camera should compensate for differences in exposure when you put on a filter, but it might be worth it to bracket your shots (a frame with the recommended exposure, one underexposed, and one overexposed). Your choice of film too, might be important. Not all films are equally sensitive to certain wavelenghts and unlike digital cameras, characteristics of the same brand and type of film may differ from one production batch to the next.

Nebula filters typically screw into the eyepiece in your telescope or your t-adapter.

But, don't put the cart before the horse. Before looking at nebula filters, get busy taking pictures of planets and stars. You'll want to get a full feeling for everything invovled in astrophotraphy before you start trying to take long exposure shots of nebulae and the like.

As for the exposure being less, the opposite is true. With your nebula filter, you're going to get less overall light to the sensor of your camera (since you're only getting a part of the light), so your exposure is going to have to be a bit longer.
