Description

Corona Australis is a ring shaped constellation of the southern sky. NGC 6726 and NGC 6729 are reflection nebula around stars, that are part of this constellation. Those nebulae are formed due to scattered light of those young blue stars on clouds of interstellar dust (MBM 152 in this case).
