Ah yes, the famous nebula where Khan met his end and the hands of Captain Kirk. And there to the upper right is the Genesis planet, so named after the Ultimate Weapon that was secretly developed by the Federation and completely forgotten again by the next movie, never to me mentioned again.

I captured the Trifid Nebula (M20) a few years back. This was the result of a series of 42 images at 35 second exposures each, then calibrated, combined and stacked into a single image.
