Soul Nebula

The Soul Nebula

The Soul Nebula, also known as Westerhout 5 or IC 1848, is an emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia. It's approximately 6,500 light-years from Earth and spans about 100 light-years. This nebula is part of a larger star-forming complex and is often photographed alongside its neighbor, the Heart Nebula, due to their proximity and similar nature. The Soul Nebula contains several open clusters of stars and is notable for its intricate structure, including dark dust lanes, glowing gas, and massive star-forming regions. The red color in images of the Soul Nebula comes from hydrogen gas illuminated by the radiation of young, massive stars within it.
