Description

After a very cloudy December, I finally got a clear night in January.
I am always surprised by the unlikely shapes of Nebulae. 
An enormous bubble is blown into space by a super-hot, massive star. The Bubble Nebula is roughly seven light-years across and is located 7,100 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia.
