Description

IC 1848 - The Soul Nebula, is an emission nebula located in Cassiopeia. It is right next to the Hearth Nebula, is about 100 light years across and has an estimated age of 1 million years. It contains several small open stars clusters. IC 1848 is embedded in the body of the nebula, while the clusters CR 34, 632 and 634 can be seen in the head.
To me it looks like a giant floating fetus, what do you see?
