NGC 7000, also known as the North America Nebula, is a giant emission nebula in the constellation of Cygnus. This image shows only the southern tip of the nebula (the Mexico part of the nebula).The nebula is being energized by the light from stars embedded within. The image was generated with observations in B (blue), V (green), I (orange) and Hydrogen-Alpha (red) filters. A narrowband image part of the nebula is also available In this image, North is up, East is to the left. |
