Description

LBN 420, a lesser imaged molecular cloud in the constellation Lacerta very near to the more common Gecko nebula. Not much is known about this cloud (as is often the case for objects like this). It is accompanied by a few tiny galaxies as well as a pretty significant amount of hydrogen-alpha in the background.
