Description

IC410, the tadpole nebula, is an emission rich region in the constellation Auriga.  No interesting scientific facts for this one, no notable discoveries.  Just two cosmic tadpoles swimming in a pond of ionized oxygen gas.       

This was one of those images where things just seemed to work out nicely.  Stable skies allowed for crisper detail than usual, as seen in the small details resolved within the tadpoles.  No AI sharpening tools, just stable skies and teeny tiny Sony pixels.
