LDN673 dark cloud in Aquila

LDN673 dark cloud in Aquila The summer Milky Way hides many small and large dark nebulae. Many of which were identified and recorded by Beverly T. Lynds in 1962. LDN673 (Lynds' Dark Nebula 673) is one such dense, dark cloud complex, located a few hundred (300-600) light-years away from Earth in the constellation Aquila. The object is about 7 light-years wide. In addition to LDN673, the photo also shows other dark nebulae recorded by Beverly T. Lynds so LDN676, LDN677 and LDN767. This image can be viewed at the Star Images 2023 Hungarian astrophoto exhibition in Budapest in the Hungarian Natural History Museum.

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.
