Here are some familiar shapes in unfamiliar locations.

This
emission nebula on the left
is famous partly because it resembles Earth's continent of
North America.

To the right of the
North America Nebula, cataloged as NGC 7000,
is a less luminous nebula that resembles a
pelican dubbed the
Pelican Nebula.
