Description

G65.2+5.7 is a SNR in the constellation of Cygnus, similar to the well known Cygnus Loop. It was discovered 1977 by T.R. Gull and covers an area of about 3.5° x 4.0°. Because of G65.2+5.7 large distance (about 2500 lightyears) and higher age (about 30’000 years), the filaments are very faint. Parts of the filametary structures have been catalogued as Sh2-91, Sh2-94 and Sh2-96.

This is a HOO image which was a bit difficult to process due to the large amount of stars in the filed  which hinder the faint filaments of the nebula.
