| Description: NGC6934 is (observationally) a fairly faint and fuzzy blob located in the tiny constellation of Delphinus. The bright star is (V) magnitude 9.3, meaning it's about 20 times fainter than the faintest star you can see with the naked eye from a dark site - the faintest stars are about magnitude 18, about 2000 times fainter than that! This image was taken during full moon, hence the sky gradient.
