서베일 성운(NGC6960)은 백조자리에 위치하고 있는 베일 성운의 일부입니다.
The Western Veil Nebula (NGC6960) is a part of the Veil Nebula located in Cygnus.

이는 약 10000~20000년 전에 폭발한 O형 주계열성의 초신성 잔해로, 강렬한 Ha 파장과 O3 파장을 내뿜는 것이 특징입니다.
It is a supernova remnant of an O-type main sequence that exploded about 10,000 to 20,000 years ago, and is characterized by emitting intense Ha and O3 wavelengths.

지구에서 약 2,400광년 떨어진 베일 성운은 밤하늘에서 무려 보름달의 6배나 되는 면적을 차지하고 있지만, 밝기가 매우 어두워 맨눈으로 보는 것은 어렵습니다.
The Veil Nebula, about 2,400 light years from Earth, occupies an area six times larger than the full moon in the night sky, but its brightness is so dark that it is difficult to see with the naked eye.

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.
