Notes:
The image shows various emission and reflection nebulae, as well as two planetary nebulae. The nebula complex is located directly east of the well-known “Lagoon Nebula,” Messier 8. In the upper right, parts of the supernova remnant SNR G007.5-01.7 can be seen, which emit primarily in [OIII].
