Description

Located in the heart of the Cygnus constellation, this detail of the North American nebula (NGC 7000) is a region rich in ionized hydrogen and oxygen emissions that create plays of light and contrasts with the interstellar dust present and that give life to dark nebulae, which represents a real "cosmic" wall to protect the nearby Pelican nebula (IC 5070). The composition was obtained in false colors with the Hubble Plette technique
