Description

IC 405 and IC 410 seemed to fit nicely in the fov of the StellaMira 90mm refractor so I figured, two for the price of one.
In this image they appear to be associated with each other but I was surprised to learn that the Flaming Star nebula is 1500 light years away whilst the Tadpoles Nebula is 12,500 light years away (I'm a south polar so I am just learning these things now ).
