vdB 142 is a small dark nebula, visible in the constellation of Cepheus.
It is located towards the central area of the great nebulous complex known as IC 1396, a few arc primes west of the open cluster associated with the nebula; despite its small size, it stands out with a discreet ease, due to its deep darkness and its shape, which gave it the nickname Elephant Proboscis. All around it appears to be surrounded by a relatively rich star field, and the presence of the diffuse nebulosity of IC 1396 further enhances its nature as a dark nebula.

vdB 142 è una piccola nebulosa oscura, visibile nella costellazione di Cefeo.
Si individua verso l'area centrale del grande complesso nebuloso noto come IC 1396, pochi primi d'arco ad ovest dell'ammasso aperto associato alla nebulosa; nonostante le sue ridotte dimensioni, si evidenzia con una discreta facilità, a causa della sua profonda oscurità e per la sua forma, che le ha conferito il soprannome di Proboscide di Elefante. Tutt'attorno appare circondata da un campo stellare relativamente ricco, e la presenza della nebulosità diffusa di IC 1396 ne risalta ulteriormente la sua natura di nebulosa oscura. (Wikipedia)
