Sh2-124

Image Description and Details : I am just going to say what everybody else seems to say: “SH2-124 is an emission nebula in northern Cygnus at about 8.500 light years away. It doesn’t seem to be imaged very often, and I was not able to find much additional information about it.”

Not imaged very often but I think with sufficient exposure – this area makes a lovely target for an image.
