Crescent Nebula

On 09/12/2024 by Mohammed Abdallah | Suez, Egypt

This is the Crescent Nebula, an emission nebula in Cygnus, similar in formation to the Bubble Nebula. This is formed due to interstellar winds colliding, creating this amazing shape.

I took this shot from my backyard in Bortle 8, about 9 hours of data.
