Emission nebulae in the constellation Auriga seen by the Northern Sky Narrowband Survey. In this false color image, doubly ionized oxygen (\[OIII\] at 500.7 nm) is mapped to red, ionized hydrogen (Hα at 656.3 nm) is mapped to green and singly ionized sulfur (\[SII\] at 671.7 nm and 673.0 nm) is mapped to blue. The brightest stars are added to visualize the regions contaminated by strong continuum light. (Aside from that, the image does not contain continuum light.)

The field of view is 20° × 27°. Equatorial center coordinates are RA=5h20m and DEC=36.5°. North is up.
