Description

NGC 7129 is a reflection nebula primarily, where the originating open cluster is supposed to be younger than 1 Mio. years. Additionally at some shock fronts the hot stars trigger faint Hα emission overlaying the blue reflection. The surrounding gas and dust cloud also forms various dark nebulae (LDN 1181, 1183, ..).

The nebula is full of interesting structures and oblect, such as numerous Herbig-Haro objects.

In the lower right corner the open cluster NGC 7142 can be seen.
