A wide-field astrophotograph showing two main celestial objects. In the lower right is NGC 6939, a tight grouping of bluish stars forming an open star cluster. In the upper left is NGC 6946, a bright face-on spiral galaxy with dusty arms, tinged in subtle red and blue hues. Faint interstellar dust clouds stretch across the image, giving it a textured appearance. The entire scene is filled with tiny stars from our Milky Way in the background.
