Description

IC410 - Tadpoles Nebula - SHO

Emission nebula in the Constellation Auriga. About 12,000 LY away and 100 LY wide.
The emission is driven by NGC1893, the young hot star cluster at image centre.
The tadpoles themselves are about 10 LY long,  composed of denser cooler gas and are likely sites of star formation.

Taken over 10 nights (fighting with poor weather and the decision to switch to an OAG.)
