Nebula North America in the Swan - The North America Nebula - The North America Nebula (NGC 7000) is a large emission nebula located near the star Deneb in the constellation Swan. NGC 7000 is the North America Nebula in Cygnus. Located just 3 degrees east - southeast of Deneb, the brightest star in Cygnus, this large 2 x 3 degree area of red hydrogen - alpha emission nebulosity is a complex star - forming region choked with gas and obscuring dust. It is located about 1,500 light years away and is about 50 light years wide. Three open clusters are associated with the North America Nebula: NGC 6989 in the north - west part of the nebula, NGC 6996 in the north, and NGC 6997 in the west. LDN 935 is the dark nebula that makes up the Gulf of Mexico region, and B253 is the dark nebula at the top (north) of the image. The two brightest stars in the image are Xi Cygnii, the 3.7 magnitude red star at left, and 57 Cygnii, the 4.8 magnitude blue - white star at the right. The North America Nebula

Cygnus (the Swan), is clearly the bird flying along the northern Milky Way. Many legends refer to this distinctive constellation, including that of Zeus who disguised himself as a swan while visiting Leda, wife of the King of Sparta. This union resulted in Pollux, one of the heavenly twins. English legends see here the more prosaic outline of a flying hen in this part of the sky. Because Cygnus is in the Milky Way, it is rich in Galactic objects that are visible in binoculars and modest telescopes, notable are the enormous North America Nebula (NCG 7000) and the faint shreds of the Veil nebula, a supenova remnant that covers a patch of sky five times larger than the full Moon.

Although stars are well known to form in clusters, most of the stars in the young groups we know of in our own galaxy are well separated in space. In NGC 3603 the stars are remarkably close together. Moreover, many of the stars in this compact constellation are Wolf - Rayet stars, extremely hot, massive objects, rarely found in such profusion in clusters. Exactly why some clusters form massive stars and others do not is a hot topic in astronomy, so this cluster and its environment has been extensively studied. This curious collection of young objects is, as far as we know, unique in our galaxy, though the enigmatic object at the centre of the Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud is now known to be a similar

However, the apparent intimacy is line - of - sight effect because these two objects are at quite different distances from the Sun. The curious looped nebula NGC 3576 is about 7000 light years from us while its neighbour NGC 3603 is more than twice as far away. That NGC 3603 is the more distant is confirmed by its colour, which is a ruddier red than the pinkish hue of NGC 3576. The change in colour is due to absorption of the blue - light component of the nebulosity by dust particles in the much longer line of sight
