Westerhout 50 (W50) or SNR G039.7-02.0, also referred to as the Manatee Nebula, [1] is a supernova remnant located in the constellation Aquila, about 18,000 light years away. In its centre lies the micro-quasar SS 433 , whose jets are distorting the remnant's shell.
The second mission of this video game requires players to build a space station. The object of Space Shuttle Project is to successfully launch and fly one of NASA's historic Space Shuttles as a shuttle commander. Gameplay is composed of several different types of missions, each broken up into short mini-games. [2]
The nebula is known as S 142 in the 1959 Sharpless catalog (Sh2-142). [2] It is extremely difficult to observe visually, usually requiring very dark skies and an O-III filter. The NGC 7380 complex is located at a distance of approximately 8.5 kilolight-years from the Sun , in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way .
NGC 7129 is a reflection nebula located 3,300 light years away in the constellation Cepheus. A young open cluster is responsible for illuminating the surrounding nebula. [2] A recent survey indicates the cluster contains more than 130 stars less than 1 million years old. [citation needed] NGC 7129 is located just half a degree from nearby ...
GS-NDG-9422 is a nebular dominated galaxy in the constellation Fornax that was discovered by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Scientists assume that the galaxy's light comes mostly from superheated gas (more than 80 000 degrees Celsius).
The nebula is rich in carbon, and is a very interesting object for the study of carbon chemistry in dense molecular material exposed to strong ultraviolet radiation. [18] The spectrum of NGC 7027 contains fewer spectral lines from neutral molecules than is usual for planetary nebulae.

NGC 6572 is a relatively young nebula, and began to shed its gases a few thousand years ago. Because of this, the material is still quite concentrated, which explains its abnormal brightness. The envelope of gas is currently racing out into space at a speed of around 15 kilometres per second. As it becomes more diffuse, it will dim.
