NGC 6858
NGC 6858 is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Cygnus. It is approximately 2,000 light-years away from Earth and is known for its bright, colorful appearance, which is a result of ionized gases emitted by a dying star at its center.
The nebula is also referred to as PK 100-24.1 and is notable for its complex structure, including a central star that is in the late stages of stellar evolution. Observations of NGC 6858 provide valuable insights into the life cycle of stars and the processes that lead to the formation of planetary nebulae.
