Who Lives 6000 Miles away...

Beautiful NGC 6914. The complex of nebulae lies some 6,000 light-years away, toward the high-flying northern constellation Cygnus and the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. 

The view spans nearly 50 light-years at the estimated distance of NGC 6914. There is no nickname for this nebulae- what name do you think it resonates with?
