The W-shaped ridge of emission featured in this vivid skyscape is known as the Cygnus Wall.
Part of a larger emission nebula with a distinctive outline popularly called The North America Nebula, the cosmic ridge spans about 20 light-years.

They are. On October,2018 they plan on putting a much more powerful telescope in space. The telescope is called the James Webb Space Telescope,and it's much bigger,and more powerful,and will have a different orbit. BF
