“North America and the Pelican” is copyrighted by Frank Sackenheim. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe North America Nebula, NGC 7000, and the Pelican Nebula, IC 5070, are two bright nebulae about 1,500 light-years away. They are part of the same large and complex star-forming region. The North America Nebula's outlines are formed by bright emission and dark, obscuring dust lanes, resembling a continental shape. The Pelican Nebula's avian profile is just off its east coast.
