The is 4000 light years away in the region of the Milky Way. This image represents an instance in which a bigger telescope is not always better for astrophotography. With my 715mm I could only capture half of the nebula. The other half is on the other side of the dark nebula in the lower right. With the other half, the nebula looks like a butterfly. I think this half looks like a flying squirrel.
