Description

This is the bubble nebula (NGC 7635) along with another nebula known as NGC 7538 (top right corner). The bubble nebula is roughly 10,000 lightyears away from earth and NGC 7538 is a little closer at 9,100 lightyears away.

The distinguishing bubble that is part of NGC 7635 is created by stellar winds from a hot star.

Both are in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way but the Bubble Nebula is in the Cassiopeia constellation while NGC 7538 is in the Cepheus constellation.
