Description

IC410, also known as the "Tadpole Nebula," is an emission nebula located in the constellation Auriga. It is situated approximately 20,000 light-years away from Earth and spans about 100 light-years in space. Embedded within the nebula is the young open cluster NGC 1893, which formed approximately 4 million years ago and shapes IC410 with its powerful stellar winds. Within the nebula, there are structures resembling tadpoles, composed of dense gas and residual dust from the cluster's formation, serving as nurseries for the birth of new stars.
