On this page I collect my observations of the dark nebulae B 142 and B 143, together also called E Nebula or Triple Cave Nebula, in the constellation Aquila.

 

Introduction

The dark nebulae B 142 and B 143, together also called Triple Cave or E Nebula because of their shapes, is a 2 light years large part of a dark cloud in the constellation Aquila. The nebula is about 2,000 light years away from earth and appears larger than the size of the earth's moon.
