Description

Close up of HH 555 which is the clearest example of a Herbig-Haro object in the Pelican Nebula. In this image detail you can easily see the dark jets shooting out of the tip of a long, dense pillar of dusty material, indicating the presence of an unseen protostar.

SHO with Ha as Luninance. I eroded the stars at the SII regions to accentuate the jets and clouds
