Description

This is a close-up of a portion of the southern wing of the Seagull nebula that contains numerous nebular structures and rays. It is displayed in an HST SHO palette. Note also the apparent stellar shock wave in the region of vdB95 (upper left). It is particularly evident in the OIII emission wavelength, but not well seen in standard RGB images.
