Delicate in appearance, these filaments of shocked, glowing gas, are draped across planet Earth's sky toward the constellation of Cygnus!
They form the western part of the Veil Nebula.

The Puppis A remnant is actually seen through outlying emission from the closer Vela supernova remnant, near the crowded plane of our galaxy!
Still glowing across the electromagnetic spectrum Puppis A remains one of the brightest sources in the X-ray sky!

The #Orion #Nebula's glowing gas surrounds hot young stars at the edge of an immense interstellar molecular cloud.
Many of the filamentary structures are actually shock waves - fronts where fast moving material encounters slow moving gas!
