NGC6823
About this celestial object
NGC 6823 shimmers as a young star cluster in Vulpecula's dense star field.
NGC 6823 lies in Vulpecula and is embedded in the gas and dust of the summer Milky Way.
Even 26 minutes of integration show the compact cluster against a grainy nebular background.
The short exposure preserves the natural impression of the star field.
