This is a list of dark nebulae (absorption nebulae), also called "dark clouds". The Milky Way as seen by Gaia, with prominent dark features labeled in white, as well as prominent star clouds labeled in black.
A dark nebula or absorption nebula is a type of interstellar cloud, particularly molecular clouds, that is so dense that it obscures the visible wavelengths of light from objects behind it, such as background stars and emission or reflection nebulae.
The Great Rift covers one third of the Milky Way, and is flanked by strips of numerous stars, such as the Cygnus Star Cloud. [2] West of the Cepheus Clouds, the Funnel cloud/Le Gentil 3 and the bordering North America Nebula, the Great Rift starts with the Northern Coalsack at the constellation of Cygnus, where it is known as the Cygnus Rift.

The cloud is sometimes extended with an eastern part, [18] and together with the distinctively long Dark Doodad Nebula (or Musca nebula) to the north the complex is called the Musca-Chamaeleonis Molecular Cloud. [19] Two foreground associations are found near the Chamaeleon dark clouds.
