Description

Not exactly ready for primetime but it's a start. I want to get more data on this target from somewhere that isn't so light polluted.

The North America Nebula is an emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus, close to Deneb. The shape of the nebula resembles that of the continent of North America, complete with a prominent Gulf of Mexico.
