An unusual nebula near UOA 27Near-infrared plates of a region in Cygnus show an extremely red nebula, about 25 arc seconds in diameter, which is displaced by about 18 arc seconds from UOA 27, an object with infrared and microwave properties similar to those of the Becklin-Neugebauer point source in Orion. This nebula may be reflecting light from the same obscured star which is the energy source for UOA 27, and could therefore provide a unique, though indirect, means of investigating the nature of stars which heat the BN point source and related objects.
