Description

This is a wide field view of NGC7000, the North America Nebula, along with IC5070, the Pelican Nebula in the constellation Cygnus. Like watching clouds and seeing familiar objects, it is similar with nebulae...we often see familiar objects in their shapes...in this case the continent of North America and a large Pelican to its right. These are both large areas of ionized hydrogen clouds that glow in their characteristic deep red color.
