Dusty Ain in the Hyades -- Sh2-239 to NGC 1555

Link: http://cosmic-colors.com/nebulae/dusty-ain-in-the-hyades/

This is one of my favorite areas in the sky, located in the well known star cluster The Hyades. The two most prominent objects are Sh2-239 in the lower left, and NGC 1555, known as Hind's Variable Nebula or Sh2-238, in the upper right. Both of these feature Herbig-Haro objects. Embedded in the molecular cloud LDN 1551, Sh2-239 contains HH 102. Hind's Variable Nebula is also known as HH 155. As a variable nebula, it can periodically change due to variations in the triple star system T Tauri that illuminates it.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

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.
Early dismissal 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.
