Description

IC 1284, or Sharpless 2-37, is an emission nebula locates at the tip of Constellation Sagittarius. Right next to it are two small blue reflective nebulae, vdB 118 & 119. The whole group is just south of the Small Sagittarius Star Cloud. It's such a dynamic region with vivid color and deep dark nebula streaks, and of course, LOTS of stars!

Sneak peek of Summer!
