NGC 7635, also known as the Bubble Nebula, Sharpless 162, or Caldwell 11, is an H II region [1] emission nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. It lies close to the open cluster Messier 52 . The "bubble" is created by the stellar wind from a massive hot, 8.7 [ 1 ] magnitude young central star , SAO 20575 ( BD+60°2522 ). [ 7 ]
The Soap Bubble Nebula, Ju 1 (also known as PN G075.5+01.7) is a planetary nebula in the constellation Cygnus, [4] near the Crescent Nebula (NGC 6888). The nebula derives its name from its symmetrical spherical shape which resembles a soap bubble .
The Bubble Nebula in Barnard's Galaxy has the official designation of Hubble 1925 I as it was the first (Roman numeral 1) object recorded in a paper by Hubble 1925. It includes areas of bright H II [1] emission. It is located north-west of the larger Hubble 1925 III.

NGC 7538, near the more famous Bubble Nebula, is located in the constellation Cepheus. It is located about 9,100 light-years from Earth. It is home to the biggest yet discovered protostar which is about 300 times the size of the Solar System. [4] It is located in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way and is probably part of the Cassiopeia OB2 ...
NGC 6822 (also known as Barnard's Galaxy, IC 4895, or Caldwell 57) is a barred irregular galaxy approximately 1.6 million light-years away in the constellation Sagittarius. Part of the Local Group of galaxies, it was discovered by E. E. Barnard in 1884, with a six-inch refractor telescope.
BD+60°2522 is a bright O-type star that has produced the Bubble Nebula with its stellar wind.The exact classification of the star is uncertain, with a number of spectral peculiarities and inconsistencies between the appearance of the star itself and the effects on the nearby nebulosity, but it is undoubtedly a highly luminous hot massive star.

The "Soap bubble nebula" (PN G75.5+1.7), near the Crescent nebula, was discovered on a digital image by Dave Jurasevich in 2007. In 2011, Austrian amateur Matthias Kronberger discovered a planetary nebula ( Kronberger 61 , now nicknamed "The Soccer Ball") on old survey photos, confirmed recently in images by the Gemini Observatory; both of ...
