Corona Australis Nebula
Corona Australis Nebula is a bright reflection nebula, about 420 light years distant, formed by several bright stars which produce a characteristic color as blue light reflected by the cosmic dark cloud of dust. The cloud is a star-forming region with clusters of young stars embedded within it.
The nebula consists of several nebulous regions, NGC 6726/NGC 6727, and NGC 6729.
NGC 6723 is a globular star cluster located some 29,000 light-years away from Earth, and spans about 65 light-years in size.
