NGC 6302 (also known as the Bug Nebula, Butterfly Nebula, or Caldwell 69) is a bipolar planetary nebula in the constellation Scorpius. The structure in the nebula is ...
The Sadr Region (also known as IC 1318 or the Gamma Cygni Nebula) is the diffuse emission nebula surrounding Sadr at the center of Cygnus's cross. The Sadr Region is one of the surrounding nebulous regions; others include the Butterfly Nebula and the Crescent Nebula. It contains many dark nebulae in addition to the emission diffuse nebulae.

NGC 6910 is an open cluster in the constellation Cygnus. It was discovered by William Herschel on October 17, 1786. The cluster was also observed by John Herschel on September 18, 1828. It is a poor cluster with prominent central concentration and Trumpler class I2p. [5] NGC 6910 is the core cluster of the stellar association Cygnus OB9. [6]
NGC 2346 is a planetary nebula near the celestial equator in the constellation of Monoceros, [5] less than a degree to the ESE of Delta Monocerotis. [6] It is informally known as the Butterfly Nebula. [3] The nebula is bright and conspicuous with a visual magnitude of 9.6, [3] and has been extensively studied.
Messier 29 or M29, also known as NGC 6913 or the Cooling Tower Cluster, is a quite small, bright open cluster of stars just south of the central bright star Gamma Cygni of a northerly zone of the sky, Cygnus. It was discovered by Charles Messier in 1764, and can be seen from Earth by using binoculars.
NGC 7026 is a planetary nebula located 6000 light-years away, in the constellation of Cygnus. The central star of the planetary nebula has a spectral type of [WO3], indicating a spectrum similar to that of an oxygen-rich Wolf–Rayet star. [2] An analysis of Gaia data suggests that it is a binary system. [3]
Butterfly Nebula may refer to: Planetary Nebula M2-9; NGC 6302, a bipolar planetary nebula in the constellation Scorpius; NGC 2346; Little Dumbbell Nebula; Sadr Region
