Description

This image was taken in ‘narrowband’ rather than ‘true’ RGB colour and shows the Spider and Fly nebulae (IC417 and NGC 1931), which are located in the constellation of Auriga. For scale, the Fly nebulae on the right is approximately 10 lightyears across, so the Spider is not likely to be catching that fly any time soon.
