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]
