The W5, a radio source within the Soul nebula, spans an area of sky equivalent to four full moons and is about 6,500 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia. Like other massive star-forming regions, such as Orion and Carina, W5 contains large cavities that were carved out by radiation and winds from the region''s most massive stars. According to the theory of triggered star formation, the carving out of these cavities pushes gas together, causing it to ignite into successive generations of new stars. The image in the gallery above contains some of the best evidence yet for the triggered star formation theory. Scientists analyzing the photo have been able to show that the ages of the stars become progressively and systematically younger with distance from the center of the cavities. Soul Nebula (Sharpless 2-199, LBN 667) is emission nebulae in Cassiopeia. Several small open clusters are embedded in the nebula: CR 34, 632, and 634[citation needed] (in the head) and IC1848 (in the body). The object is more commonly called by the cluster designation IC1848. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soul_Nebula#mediaviewer/File:Celestial_Valentine.jpg Instruments and exposure data: W.O FLT110 with dedicated TMB field flattener FeatherTouch 3'''' focuser Starizona MicroTouch autofocuser W.O ZS80 ED SBIG ST10XME CFW9 Meade DSI Filters: Ha 5nm Astrodon Sky-Watcher EQ6 Pro Ha :26*10min bin1x1 (4 hours 20 min) Athens, Hellas

Όχι δεν είναι Trifid αν και μοιάζει καταπληκτικά!!! Πρόκειται για το SH 2-124 , νεφέλωμα εκπομπής στο Κύκνο, ένα αντικείμενο που δεν βλέπουμε συχνά. Συνολικός χρόνος έκθεσης 8h 20min με το 5nm Ha. Θα υπάρξει και συνέχεια αν το επιτρέψουν οι καιρικές συνθήκες.
