“Wisps of the Veil Nebula” is copyrighted by Joaquin Ferreiros. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Veil Nebula, also known as the Cygnus Loop, is all that remains visible of a star that exploded in a supernova about 9,000 years ago. At the time, the expanding cloud was likely as bright as a crescent Moon, visible for weeks. Today, this supernova remnant has faded, appearing as delicate wisps in the constellation Cygnus.
