Description

Captured wide-field to expose the surrounding dust of the Perseus Molecular Cloud, this relatively close star forming region at 990 light years, is a sparsely imaged target lying in the dust-lanes of Giant Perseus  Molecular Cloud. This 10 hour integration using modest equipment from extremely dark skies exposes the dust around this stellar nursery.
