    This week's episode on #Sagitta is focused on the #astronomy in the constellation, which means -- #astrophotography from this constellation ahead this week!!!

    Here we have the Little Cocoon Nebula aka Little Trifid Nebula aka Sh2-82. It is an emission nebula surrounded by a reflection nebula. while it wasn't our gold star winner, this is a dazzling image!
