Description

This is another of those nebulae that in my opinion makes a lot of sense in the Hubble palette, so I added the ionized Sulfur signal to what I had already collected in August with the L_Ultimate dual-band filter. The final result is what you see in this image.

Soul Nebula (also known as Embryo Nebula or with the catalog abbreviations IC 1848 and W5) is a diffuse nebula associated with an open cluster of young and hot stars of great mass, visible in the constellation of Cassiopeia, towards the border with the Camelopardalis. It is one of the areas where star formation is most active.
