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.
What makes the nebula bright is not, as it may seem, the star Sadr since it is not related to the molecular complex: although it is a very distant star, located around 1,500 light-years from Earth, it is the foreground compared to the nebulous field. [3]
Gamma Cygni (γ Cygni, abbreviated Gamma Cyg, γ Cyg), officially named Sadr / ˈ s æ d ər /, [11] [12] is a star in the northern constellation of Cygnus, forming the intersection of an asterism of five stars called the Northern Cross.
Messier 29 can be found quite easily as it is about 1.7 degrees south [c] of Gamma or 37 Cygni (Sadr). Angularly close, and almost certainly nearby in space, is diffuse nebulosity. The especially hot binary Wolf–Rayet star WR 143 (WC4+Be) (HD 195177) can be found near this cluster.
Researchers have unveiled intricate details of the star-forming region known as the Tarantula Nebula which lies 170,000 light years from Earth. Scientists map violent nebula to discover how stars ...
NGC 6910 is located half a degree east-north east of Gamma Cygni, also known as Sadr. It may be physically related with the nebula IC 1318 (also known as the Gamma Cygni Nebula) as it lies at a similar distance, behind the galactic Great Rift. Cygnus OB9 is located within the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. Cygnus OB9's dimensions in the sky are 2. ...
The Veil Nebula is a cloud of heated and ionized gas and dust in the constellation Cygnus. [4]It constitutes the visible portions of the Cygnus Loop, [5] a supernova remnant, many portions of which have acquired their own individual names and catalogue identifiers.
