Description

Located in the constellation Cygnus, the Western Veil nebula is just one section of the larger Cygnus Loop faint supernova remnant that exploded around 7,000 years ago and now reaches the width of 6 full moons across the sky.⁣

We are stardust.⁣

 I mapped to the HHOHO colour palette and added  RGB stars blended in at the final stage of editing. I hope you like it!
