NGC 6726 - A reflection and emission nebula in the constellation Corona Australis processed by Jon Gascoyne from image data acquired on Insight Observatory's remote telescope, ATEO-3 located at Deep Sky Chile. Image data by Franck Jobard. If you cast your gaze towards the constellation Corona Australis, you might just catch a glimpse of the mesmerizing NGC 6729, affectionately known as Caldwell 68. This celestial spectacle, a reflection/emission nebula, was first discovered by the keen eyes of Johann Friedrich Julius Schmidt in the year 1861. Let's embark on a cosmic journey to unravel the secrets held within the folds of this captivating nebula. NGC 6729 takes center stage as a small yet enchanting segment of the Corona Australis Molecular Cloud positioned approximately 400 light-years away from our vantage point on Earth. Imagine a fan-shaped nebula unfolding its celestial wings, reaching out from the radiant R Coronae Australis to the distant T CrA in the southeast. Th

NGC 7635 - The Bubble Nebula processed by Brian Puhl from image data acquired on Insight Observatory's CDK500 remote telescope located in Spain (AFIL-7). NGC 7635, commonly known as the Bubble Nebula, is one of the most fascinating and visually striking objects in our night sky. Situated in the constellation Cassiopeia, this celestial wonder is a massive emission nebula, and its nickname is derived from its distinctive bubble-like appearance. The Bubble Nebula is particularly renowned for its unique characteristics, which have captivated the curiosity of astronomers and stargazers alike. One of the most distinctive features of the Bubble Nebula is the enormous, nearly spherical shell of gas and dust that envelops a central, massive star named BD+60°2522. This star's intense ultraviolet radiation ionizes the surrounding hydrogen gas, causing it to emit a brilliant red glow, typical of emission nebulae. The expanding shell of the Bubble Nebula, created by the powerful solar
