This image features the ionized oxygen CircumStellar Matter around the Wolf-Rayet star WR 134 in an interesting wide field. This object is included in the HASH PN Database. Its status is 'CircumStellar Matter' - not a true planetary. WR 134 is a distance of about 6,216 light years and is roughly a Mag 8 star.

The surrounding region in this image has significant emission structures . Ha and OIII emission line filters were employed. This imagery makes up the red and blue emission gasses likely booth foreground and background. This region is also at the very southern edge of the Cygnus-X region studied by Dickel, Wendker, and Bieritz and forming the DWB HII catalog. The DWB catalog has 193 HII objects listed - eight are in the upper portion of this image. Also within this field are LBN 177, 179, 182, 187, and 189; as are LDN 856, 853 (also known as BARN 147). Open star clusters NGC 6871 and NGC 6883 are in this field as well as the planetary nebula NGC 6881.

These objects and some of the brighter stars are identified in the annotated image. Vertical FOV is approximately 2.53 degrees. Full size image scale is about 0.95 arcsec/pix.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
