Description

The Tadpoles nebula is a faint emission nebula (IC410) which surrounds a young star cluster who's radiation shapes the dust and gas into the wonderful forms we see. The "tadpoles" are about 10 light years in length.

Captured in the Hubble palette from my backyard in the suburbs of Edinburgh, Scotland.
