his complex nebulosity (Sh2-101) is commonly known as the “Tulip Nebula�. It is located in Cygnus, about a couple of degrees southwest of NGC6888, the “Crescent Nebula�. This area is strong in Ha and SII emissions, and is located about 2,000 light years away from us. Sh2-101 lies inside the Orion spiral arm of our galaxy, as does our own solar system.
