It lies near the clusterNGC 7023. Looking at the adjacent image, the nebula’s name is easily understood. The Ghost Nebula is referred to as a globule (catalogued CB230) and over 2 light-years across. There are several stars embedded, whose reflected light make the nebula appear a yellowish-brown colour.
