Day 1614 #DailyPhoto #SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #HeartNebula aka #IC1805 is an emission nebula 7500 light years from earth in the Persus arm of our galaxy. The center of the Heart contains a newborn (1.5 million years old) star cluster called Melotte 15. This image is 2.5 hours of exposure (30x300 seconds) that I started at 2 this morning under a nearly full moon (not ideal conditions). #StillLearning

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #HeartNebula aka #IC1805 is located 7500 light years away and is 165 light years across, covering an area 4 times the full moon. The blue is caused by ionized oxygen and the orange by ionized sulfur. I captured 66 five minute exposures the night before last but had to throw away almost an hour and a half of exposure because of the Canadian wildfire smoke. #StillLearning

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography On cloudy nights, I have been learning more about processing by revisiting some recent targets. The #HeartNebula is an emission nebula 7500 light years from Earth. This is my favorite target so far and I look forward to capturing more (better) data . The bright area at the bottom is the #FishheadNebula #StillLearning

Happy Valentine's Day from space!❤️

Does Cassiopeia hold our Galaxy's heart? Officially named IC 1805, this cosmic dust cloud is more commonly referred to as the Heart Nebula (for obvious reasons). The radiation from young, hot stars at the centre of the nebula is heating up hydrogen molecules, giving the image its romantic red colour.

You are looking at ionised hydrogen gas and shapes made by stellar winds at 7500 lightyears distance. Never a dull moment in our galaxy.
