NGC 2736 is a small part of the Vela Supernova Remnant, located near the Vela Pulsar in the constellation Vela. The nebula's linear appearance triggered its popular name. It resides about 815 light-years away from the Solar System. It is thought to be formed from part of the shock wave of the larger Vela Supernova Remnant. The Pencil Nebula is moving at roughly 644,000 kilometers per hour.

NGC 6786 is an interacting spiral galaxy 350 million light years from the Earth, in the constellation of Draco. NGC 6786 is currently interacting with LEDA 62867, and, being the larger galaxy, it is likely that NGC 6786 will absorb LEDA 62867 in the future. Both galaxies appear to be undergoing a starburst, a phenomenon commonly seen among interacting and merging galaxies.
