The Soul Nebula (Westerhout 5) is an emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia. It forms a famous pair known as the Heart and Soul with the neighboring Heart Nebula (IC 1805). The Soul Nebula is sometimes also known as the Embryo Nebula or IC 1848, a designation used for the open star cluster embedded within the nebula.
The Heart and Soul Nebulae complex spans about 300 light-years across and is a vast star-forming region illuminated by the light of the young stars surrounded by star-forming clouds of dust and gas. The two large clouds are separated by only 2.5 degrees and are physically connected by a gas bridge. The stars in the region are less than a few million years old and are only beginning their life. For comparison, our Sun has been around for almost 5 billion
