Description

IC-1805 and IC-1848 also known as the Heart and Soul nebulae.

Both the Heart and the Soul nebulae glow in red (at 656.28nm) when imaged with broadband visible spectrum owing to their dominance in ionized Hydrogen gas. But due to the false-color technique, making use of individual narrow-band filters to capture this target, this image reveals the less glowing gases such as the ionized Oxygen (primarily at 500.7nm) and Sulfur (at 671.6nm and 673.1nm).
