Deep Space Star Bubbles (Color revision)

Yes, according to NADA, a super-hot, massive star is blowing an enormous bubble of material into space. The star forming the bubble is 45 times more massive than our sun. As the surface of the bubble’s shell expands outward, it pushes into denser and higher-pressure regions of gas on one side of the bubble. This imbalance makes the star appear dramatically off-center from the bubble. The nebula is around 7,000 light years away with a diameter of about 7 light years.

I have seen this classified as a Planetary nebula, but the NASA website labels it an emission nebula. Either way it is a cool area of space and a very unique object.

Also seen is M52 a star cluster that is estimated to be between 3,900 and 5,000 light years away. Galactic dust and high interstellar absorption of light makes determining distance difficult.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
