Breathtaking image of the Cocoon Nebula (IC 5146), a vibrant stellar nursery in the Cygnus constellation. This emission, reflection, and absorption nebula showcases a beautiful mix of pink, red, and teal hues, illuminated by a massive, newly formed star at its center. The star, approximately 100,000 years old, carved a path through a molecular cloud, creating the stunning structure we see today.

A stunning image of the Cocoon Nebula (IC 5146), a vibrant stellar nursery in the Cygnus constellation. This emission, reflection, and absorption nebula is illuminated by a massive, young star that punched a hole through a molecular cloud, creating the breathtaking colors and glowing gas we see. The nebula is located about 4,000 light-years from Earth.
