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]

The open clusters M36 and M37, also discovered by Hodierna, are often grouped together with M38. [5]
