Description

This is a relatively bright emission nebula not far from the better known Bubble Nebula. The small star cluster just below the upper Oiii emitting pincer is Markarian 50 and the star cluster at the bottom right is NGC 7510.
Data processed with the latest XTerminator actions. I made a synthetic green from a 50:50 mix of the Ha and Oiii data.
