2020年6月30日 · The Lagoon Nebula, M8 or NGC 6523. As one of the showpiece objects of the summer sky in the northern hemisphere, the Lagoon never rises very high from most locations north of the equator. This image of the Lagoon was imaged from Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile.

The Lagoon Nebula (catalogued as Messier 8 or M8, NGC 6523, Sharpless 25, RCW 146, and Gum 72) is a giant interstellar cloud in the constellation Sagittarius. It is classified as an emission nebula and has an H II region .

2024年1月15日 · The Lagoon Nebula, or NGC 6523, captivates with a rich history and celestial wonders. From Giovanni Hodierna’s discovery to features like the Hourglass Nebula and central star cluster, it unfolds a tale of ongoing star formation. Exploring its ionized gases, star formation, and unique structures, we witness the dynamic interplay within.

The Lagoon Nebula (M8, NGC 6523, Sh2-25, RCW 146, Gum 72) at the bottom of this LRGB image is an emission nebula located in Sagittarius, between 4,000 and 6,000 light years (ly) from Earth, and it about 20-50 x 50-100 ly across (depending on source).
