NGC7882 / Sharples 171

NGC7882 is a large Emission Nebula in Cepheus, whilst I tried to obtain some OIII data, there appears to be very little OIII Data within this particular target. NGC7822 lies approximately 2900 light years from Earth and spans somewhere in the region of 100 light years across, there are a number of "Pillars of Creation" scattered throughout this large nebula.
