It is widely known as the Cave Nebula, though that name was applied earlier to Ced 201, a different nebula in Cepheus. Sh 2-155 is an ionized H II region with ongoing star formation activity, [1] at an estimated distance of 725 parsecs (2400 light-years) from Earth. [2] [3]
IC 405 (also known as the Flaming Star Nebula, SH 2-229, or Caldwell 31) is an emission and reflection nebula [1] in the constellation Auriga north of the celestial equator, surrounding the bluish, irregular variable star AE Aurigae. It shines at magnitude +6.0. Its celestial coordinates are RA 05 h 16.2 m dec +34° 28′. [2]
It is associated with a dark cloud L1450 (Barnard 205). Estimates of the distance to this nebula range from 980–1,140 ly (300–350 pc). [4] This nebula is in the western part [4] of the Perseus molecular cloud and is a young region of very active star formation, [6] being one of the best-studied objects of its type. [4]
The nebula is known as S 142 in the 1959 Sharpless catalog (Sh2-142). [2] It is extremely difficult to observe visually, usually requiring very dark skies and an O-III filter. The NGC 7380 complex is located at a distance of approximately 8.5 kilolight-years from the Sun , in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way .
NGC 7822 is a young star forming complex in the constellation of Cepheus. The complex encompasses the emission region designated Sharpless 171 , and the young cluster of stars named Berkeley 59 . The complex is believed to be some 800–1000 pc distant, [ 5 ] [ 6 ] with the younger components aged no more than a few million years.
NGC 6357 is a diffuse nebula near NGC 6334 in the constellation Scorpius.The nebula contains many proto-stars shielded by dark discs of gas, and young stars wrapped in expanding "cocoons" or expanding gases surrounding these small stars.
NGC 5189 (Gum 47, IC 4274, nicknamed Spiral Planetary Nebula) is a planetary nebula in the constellation Musca. It was discovered by James Dunlop on 1 July 1826, who catalogued it as Δ252. [ 1 ] For many years, well into the 1960s, it was thought to be a bright emission nebula.
