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.

IC 5146 (also Caldwell 19, Sh 2-125, Barnard 168, and the Cocoon Nebula) is a reflection [2] /emission [3] nebula and Caldwell object in the constellation Cygnus. The NGC description refers to IC 5146 as a cluster of 9.5 mag stars involved in a bright and dark nebula. The cluster is also known as Collinder 470. [4]
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
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.
