This delicate emission nebula is located in the constellation Lacerta. Together with Sh2-126, it reveals itself through the glow of ionized hydrogen.
In this region, the young star V375 is associated with the Herbig-Haro object HH398—luminous structures that form when gas expelled by newborn stars collides with surrounding material.
