The great cosmic curtain
The great cosmic curtain
The great Lacerta nebula, a.k.a SH2-126, large emission nebula in the constellation of Lacerta (Latin for Lizard) ~1200 ly away. A faint target but glows in hydrogen alpha excited from star 10 Lacerta an O type star. In this framing, it looks like a large curtain about to fall and reveal something.
