IC1805. The Heart Nebula
Diffuse nebula in Casiopea

Close together in Casiopea we can find two emission nebulas called the Heart and soul nebulaes (The last one also known as the embryo nebula). Both nebulas are red bright due to the hidrogen excited by the solar wind emited by joung stars. Several young stars clusters can be found inside both nebulas. Distance to Earth: 6000 light years
