Description

NGC7000 the North America nebula.

in 2020 after the Gaia astrometry satellite measured the precise distances to 395 stars lying within the HII region, it was estimated that North America and Pelican nebulae lie 2,590 light years away (795±25 parsecs). The whole HII region Sh2-117 is then 140 light years across, and the North America Nebula stretches 90 light years north to south.
