Description

Dates of Acquisition October 18,19,21 2022

My version of the Cygnus Wall which is actually a hot bed of gas, dust, and newly formed stars known as the Cygnus Wall. The featured image shows the star forming wall lit and eroded by bright young stars, and partly hidden by the dark dust they have created. The part  shown spans about 15 light years and lies about 1,500 light years away toward the constellation of the Swan (Cygnus).
