IC410 Emission Nebula (HII-Region)

Type: Emission Nebula (IC 410, HII-region) with the open star cluster NGC 1893 in the constellation Auriga. Images of the star cluster by the Chandra X-ray Observatory suggest that it contains approximately 4,600 young stellar objects. An HII-region is a region of interstellar atomic hydrogen that is ionized. It is typically in a molecular cloud of partially ionized gas in which star formation has recently taken place, with a size ranging from one to hundreds of light years, and density from a few to about a million particles per cubic centimetre. Visual Brightness (NGC 1893): 7.5 mag / Distance ~ 12.4 kLy Date: January 10-th & 12-th, 2024 / Moon: 3,1% & 0,3% Equipment: Stellina 80/400, 2332x10s (6h 28min), stacked: Stellina, post.-proc.: TOPAZ denoise, APP, Affinity-Photo, FITSwork
