The Nebulous Realm of WR 134
The bright edge of a ring-like nebula traced by ionized hydrogen and oxygen gas. This cosmic snapshot covers a field of view over twice as wide as the full Moon in Cygnus. These glowing arcs are sections of shells of material swept up by the wind from Wolf-Rayet star WR 134, the brightest star near the image's center. We are seeing it through astronomical narrowband filters.
