Description

The Witch's Broom Nebula, also Filamentary Nebula, Cirrus Nebula, Lacework Nebula, NGC 6960, LBN 191, is a supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus. It is part of the Veil Nebula (on the west side). Almost in the center is the star 52 Cygnus, visible to the naked eye, but it has nothing to do with this ancient nebula.
