Soul Nebula

Soul Nebula: Very close to the Heart Nebula (IC 1805) in the constellation of Cassiopeia lies this quite faint emission nebula. A rich star forming region, it shows several typical features for this class of objects: Bok globules , Cometary Globules as well as trunk like pillars, all of them different beds for star births.

Some very bright blue-white stars illuminate the hydrogen gas to shine red, but also give the scene a blueish tint from reflected light.
