      Description

      This area in the sky is filled with interesting objects. Among the crowd are the Bubble Nebula (Sh2-162), just beneath it the open cluster, M52, and above it, NGC 7538, a bright emission and reflection nebula. On the right side of the image are the familiar Lobster Claw (Sh2-157), and above it a non-symmetrical open cluster, NGC 7510. So much to enjoy in this FOV.
