The Gamma Cygni/Butterfly Nebula ((also known as IC 1318 or the Sadr Region) is the diffuse emission nebula surrounding Sadr (γ Cygni) at the center of Cygnus's cross. This wide-field image also includes the Crescent Nebula (NGC 6888) at the upper left corner. The region contains many dark nebulae in addition to the emission diffuse nebulae.
