NGC 1763 (also known as N11 B, LH 10 or ESO 85-EN20) is an emission nebula with an embedded star cluster in the Dorado constellation in the Large Magellanic Cloud, It is very bright, very large and very irregular. Its apparent size is about 3.0-5.0 arcmin. [3]
Mz 3 is radially expanding at a rate of about 50 km/s and has its polar axis oriented at an angle of around 30° from the plane of the sky (Lopez & Meaburn 1983; Meaburn & Walsh 1985). It is sometimes compared to the more extensively studied Butterfly Nebula (M 2-9), and it is quite likely that both have a similar evolutionary history.
The Ring Nebula is located in the lower right of the image Gum Nebula: 809–950 ly (248–291 pc) [16] [17] Emission nebula: Extends about 36° of the sky Bubble Nebula (NGC 6822) 758 ly (232 pc) [18] [19] [20] H II region: The Bubble Nebula is located in the upper left of the image NGC 6188: 600 ly (180 pc) [21] Emission nebula: NGC 592
Gyulbudaghian's Nebula (gyool-boo-DAH-ghee-an) is a reflection nebula in the northern constellation Cepheus, located about 1.5 degrees west of the much brighter reflection nebula NGC 7023. The light illuminating it comes from the T Tauri star PV Cephei .
NGC 3132 (also known as the Eight-Burst Nebula, [2] the Southern Ring Nebula, [2] or Caldwell 74) is a bright and extensively studied planetary nebula in the constellation Vela. Its distance from Earth is estimated at 613 pc or 2,000 light-years .
NGC 3324 is an open cluster in the southern constellation Carina, located northwest of the Carina Nebula (NGC 3372) [3] [4] at a distance of 9,100 ly (2,800 pc) from Earth. [2] It is closely associated with the emission nebula IC 2599 , also known as Gum 31 . [ 5 ]
NGC 7662 is a planetary nebula located in the northern constellation Andromeda.It is known as the Blue Snowball Nebula, Snowball Nebula, and Caldwell 22.This nebula was discovered October 6, 1784 by the German-born English astronomer William Herschel.
