IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - telescope processed image. Located 6,500 light-years away in Cassiopeia, this massive star-forming region spans about 100 light-years, sculpted by radiation from young, hot stars.

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - unprocessed image. The nebula contains several open star clusters and "pillars of creation" style gas structures where new solar systems are currently being born from dust.

Good Monday morning. Here are observations from last night by the s50. Starting out with #IC1848 #TheSoulNebula. This time with the Light Pollution (LP) filter on. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - telescope processed image. It’s the partner to the Heart Nebula. Together, they form a massive star-forming complex spanning about 580 light-years.

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - unprocessed image. Fierce winds from massive young stars carve out hollow cavities in the gas, giving the nebula its ethereal, ghostly shape.

For the s50 set it up to view #IC1848 #TheSoulNebula. Used the Moon and Sky Light filter. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - telescope processed image. The nebula is a massive star-forming factory where intense radiation from young stars carves out giant "bubbles" and towers of gas.

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - unprocessed image. It is famous for its proximity to the Heart Nebula; together, they span 300 light-years and are known as the "Heart and Soul."

Next up is an observation of #IC1848 #TheSoulNebula. #dwarflabs #dwarfmini #space #astronomy #amateur

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - telescope processed image with LP Filter. Part of the famous "Heart and Soul" nebulae, this vast star-forming region is a cloud of glowing gas and dust in Cassiopeia with young stars inside.

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - unprocessed image with LP Filter on. It is located right next to the Heart Nebula (IC 1805) in the sky, leading astronomers and imagers to call the pair the "Heart and Soul" nebulae.

Here is another observation that was redone from yesterday. #IC1848 #TheSoulNebula. Definite improvement from previous observation with the LP Filter on. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - telescope processed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. It's a huge emission nebula in Cassiopeia (part of the Heart and Soul Nebulae complex) where young stars are forming. It's also called the Embryo Nebula.

IC 1848 The Soul Nebula - unprocessed image with Moon and Sky Light Filter. It's also known as the Embryo Nebula because its shape can resemble a human fetus. Massive young stars within it carve out 10 light-year-tall dust pillars.

When to go see #IC1848 #TheSoulNebula. This location may benefit by using the onboard LP filter. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur
