On this page I collect my observations of the galactic emission nebula NGC 7538 in the constellation Cepheus.

 

Introduction

The galactic emission nebula NGC 7635 (Bubble Nebula) in the constellation Cepheus is located close to the galactic emission nebula NGC 7635 (Bubble Nebula) and the well-known open star cluster M 52. With the Vespera Pro, it can be observed together with M 52 and NGC 7635, in a huge mosaic even together with the Cave Nebula C 9/Sh2-155.
