Description

IC410, IC417, and IC405, aka The Tadpoles, Spider and Flaming star nebulae in RGB (two panel mosaic):
Located in the constellation of Auriga, the Flaming Star Nebula (IC405, SH2-229 or Caldwell 31) is approximately 1500 light years away. The Tadpoles (IC410) are located at approximately 12,000 light years, so despite looking like neighbors, these two are not. IC417, Spider, is roughly 10,000 light years away.
Original data acquisition: Late Feb. 2022
Flaming Star (IC405) panel: 10 x 180sec light subs; 15 x 300sec light subs
Tadpoles (IC410) & Spider (IC417) panel: 25 x 300sec light subs
(30 Auto flats, 30 Dark Flats, and 20 Darks per exposure)
Stacked, integrated and mosaiced in Astro Pixel Processor, post processed in Pixinsight with final touches in Paintshop pro.
