Description

From GalaxyMap:

Sh 2-133 is probably a part of a chain of ionized arcs surrounding the older group of the Cep OB2 association and is located at a distance of about 800 pc.[1]

Sh 2-131 and several other H II regions, such as Sh 2-129, Sh 2-133, Sh 2-134, and Sh 2-140 are apparently parts of the Cepheus bubble. [2]
