Sharpless 115 & 116 and Co in Cygnus

Image Description and Details : This image features many interesting celestial objects in Cygnus, the brightest star in that constellation. First and foremost, there are two Sharpless objects known as SH2-115 & SH2 116. The first one is a very large, faint emission nebula approximately 2 degrees northwest of Deneb. Its neighbor, SH2-116, is a small round planetary nebula, featured also in this image. Secondly, they are many LBN objects in the field of view – too much ! Let’s pause there for the time being….
