North is up in this image. In this image the Sharpless 235 is the small bright emission roughly central in the image. The large dominating emission nebula toward the upper right is Sharpless 232. In the visual center of this object is a small planetary nebula G137.5+03.2 it is barely detectable in this image. Also in Sharpless 232 toward its upper region is a dark nebula known as LDN 1523. Two other emission nebulae are Sharpless 231 and 233. Sharpless 235 also have parts A, B, and C trailing off just below. These emission nebulae also have LBN designations. These objects as well as some of the brighter stars are identified in the annotated image. Horizontal FOV is 120'

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Dismissals Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
