NGC7129
in Cepheus
NGC 7129 is a reflection nebula located 3,300 light years away in the constellation Cepheus. A young open cluster is responsible for illuminating the surrounding nebula. A recent survey indicates the cluster contains more than 130 stars less than 1 million years old. The open cluster NGC 7142 is located just half a degree from NGC 7129 (up and to the left).
