The Cygnus (also known as the Northern Cross) is one of the most recognizable constellations in the boreal sky hemisphere. It contains Deneb (a Cyg), one of the corners of the asterism Summer Triangle and one of the brightest stars in the Night Sky.The Cygnus also contains some well-known emission nebulae such as NGC 7000 (the North America Nebula), which is easily identifiable using telescopes, due to its shape which resembles the North American continent profile. Its brighter region, known as Cygnus Wall, is the one resembling the Mexican Gulf and was captured in these pictures.I present two versions: the first one in Hubble’s Palette (SHO) and the second one in Bicolor (HOO) combination. Both of them use false color combinations, which are defined by astronomers for mapping the gas composition of these amazing objects. As usual, the stars were acquired using Broadband RGB filters.The Cygnus Wall, as the whole region, is about 1960 light years away from Earth. The distance was uncertain until some years ago, because of the interstellar dust presence between us and the nebulae.

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.
