Cygnus Milkyway Arm
Presented here is a widefield view of the northern constellation Cygnus, known since the time of the ancients as the 'Swan'. This is a fabulous visual part of our northern hemisphere's milkyway, in which we are looking inward towards the cygnus spiral arm which hosts many deep sky treasures including the North America and Pelican nebulae, Messier cluster's M29 & 39, and the great 'Cygnus Rift', which is composed of a huge mass of galactic dust. This is best seen on clear summer nights.
