Situated 7500 light years away in the ‘W’-shaped constellation of Cassiopeia, (IC1805) the Heart Nebula is a vast region of glowing gas, energized by a cluster of young stars at its centre. The image depicts the central region, where dust clouds are being eroded and moulded into rugged shapes by the searing cosmic radiation.
This image is made up of 26 exposures in total, each one being 30 minutes long.
Hope that you like it.
