Description

The HII region IC 410 in the constellation Auriga, measuring approximately 100 light years, is energized to glow by the radiation of the relatively young, hot stars of the open cluster IC 1893. Within IC 410 are the two so-called cosmic tadpoles, which are about 10 light-years long and consist of gas and dust that are considered to be new star-forming regions. 

The image was shot through a 130/910 mm TS Photoline Apo @ f/5.75 with a ZWO ASI2600mm-pro.
