Nebula for the Year of the Dragon
NGC 6188 is an emission nebula 4,000 ly away and is found in the constellation Ara. It is also known as the Rim Nebula and the Fighting Dragons of Ara. The latter makes this nebula a good photo for this year's Lunar New Year - the Year of the Dragon. I have also posted a cropped version of the same image.
