NGC 6820 Trunk Nebula

NGC 6820 ist ein Emissionsnebel im Sternbild Fuchs, welcher am 7. August 1864 vom Astronomen Albert Marth entdeckt wurde.

NGC 6820 ist ein kleiner Reflexionsnebel in der Nähe des offenen Sternhaufens NGC 6823 in Vulpecula . Der Reflexionsnebel und der Cluster sind in einen großen schwachen Emissionsnebel namens Sh2-86 eingebettet. Der gesamte Nebelbereich wird oft als NGC 6820 bezeichnet.

Der offene Sternhaufen NGC 6823 hat einen Durchmesser von etwa 50 Lichtjahren und liegt etwa 6.000 Lichtjahre entfernt. Das Zentrum des Haufens entstand vor etwa zwei Millionen Jahren und wird in seiner Helligkeit von einer Vielzahl heller junger blauer Sterne dominiert. Äußere Teile des Haufens enthalten noch jüngere Sterne.

Auf Grund seiner Himmelsposition ist das Objekt auch bei mondhelleren Nächten, insbesondere für Schmalband-Aufnahmen geeignet. Dies war der Grund für das BTB-Team, diese interessante Struktur des Sommerhimmels Ende Juni 2023 abzubilden.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
