Aquila (constellation)
Aquila is a constellation on the celestial equator.

Celestial equator
The celestial equator is the great circle of the imaginary celestial sphere on the same plane as the equator of Earth.
See NGC 6790 and Celestial equator
Constellation
A constellation is an area on the celestial sphere in which a group of visible stars forms a perceived pattern or outline, typically representing an animal, mythological subject, or inanimate object.

NASA
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is an independent agency of the U.S. federal government responsible for the civil space program, aeronautics research, and space research.
New General Catalogue
The New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars (abbreviated NGC) is an astronomical catalogue of deep-sky objects compiled by John Louis Emil Dreyer in 1888. NGC 6790 and New General Catalogue are NGC objects.
See NGC 6790 and New General Catalogue
Planetary nebula
A planetary nebula is a type of emission nebula consisting of an expanding, glowing shell of ionized gas ejected from red giant stars late in their lives. NGC 6790 and planetary nebula are planetary nebulae.
See NGC 6790 and Planetary nebula
Sun
The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System.
See NGC 6790 and Sun
White dwarf
A white dwarf is a stellar core remnant composed mostly of electron-degenerate matter.
