Description

G65.3+5.7, which we fondly call 'the little Cygnus Veils' because it looks a bit like other cool stuff in space, is a really faint leftover from a supernova explosion.

People don't often take pictures of it in the night sky because it's so dim.
You can find it in the Cygnus constellation, a part of the night sky.
This thing is made up of a bunch of delicate and wispy shapes, sort of like clouds, and they have names like SH2-91, SH2-94, and SH2-96.

What's even more amazing is that this whole thing is crazy far away – more than 2,500 light years!
And it stretches across a huge part of the sky, about 4 degrees wide.

I leave also another versión with all stars on that field, "it's full of stars"

Please don't confuse with more common object CTB-1.

This is a totally different target!!
