Located in the Cygnus Constellation, about 8,000 light years away. The Tulip Nebula is about 70 light years across.

This image was taken with narrow band light blocking filters that eliminate all but Sii, Ha and Oiii emission lines of light; in other words, it blocks out all the city light pollution.
