NGC 6888 -( Crescent Nebula) is an emission nebula in constellation Cygnus about 5000 light years away from Earth .It was discovered by german astronomer William Herschel in 1792 . The Crescent Nebula it is formed from by the fast stellar wind from the Wolf-Rayet 136 (HD192163) colliding with and energizing the slower moving wind ejected by the star when , it became  a red giant around 250.000 to 400.000 years ago.

 Messier 8  - Commonly known as the Lagoon Nebula .M8 was discovered in 1654 by italian astronomer Giovanni Battista Hodierna who like Charles Messier,sought to catalog nebulous objects in the night sky so they would not be mistaken for comets. This star forming cloud  of interstellar gas is located in the constellation Sagittarius and its apparent magnitude of 6 makes it faintly visible to the naked aye in dark skies.Located 5.200 light years from Earth M8 is hometo its own star cluster : NGC 6530 .The massive stars embedded withim the nebula give off enormous amounts of ultraviolet radiation ,ionizing the gas and causing it to shine .
