While the Pacman Nebula isn't scary itself, some say it has Halloween-esque features in that you can see a face in it at times.
Have you ever seen a face in the #PacmanNebula?

New deep-sky shots from my DWARF telescopes: one showing the Pacman Nebula devouring starlight in Cassiopeia, the other capturing the soft spiral arms of the Triangulum Galaxy, 2.7M LY away. Tiny scopes, big universe.

NGC 281 Pacman Nebula - telescope processed image. NGC 281 is an emission nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. Its nickname, the Pacman Nebula, comes from its resemblance to the iconic video game character. Imaging NGC 281 (a.k.a. 'The Pacman Nebula').
NGC 281 Pacman Nebula - unprocessed image. In infrared light, the Pacman Nebula looks like it has teeth! It's also an active star-forming region.
Another #nebula from this morning. #NGC281 #PacmanNebula. The s50 does amazing with the nebula for sure. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Area where NGC 281 (Pac-Man Nebula) is. Spice the first time I have not been very successful imaging the nebula.
Tried to get #NGC281 #PacmanNebula again. Not very successful compared to the last times I tried. Best observation to date was on July 20th. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Out of this world! The Pacman Nebula

The Pac-Man Nebula (NGC 281) is an emission nebula in Cassiopeia, resembling the video game character. It's a star-forming region, about 9,200 light-years away. This is the telescope processed image.
Non-processed image. This was more than an hour.
Good Sunday morning. Been busy at work so not to much observation time right now. Not much to share from last week. Here are not so successful attempts at the #PacmanNebula again from last Monday. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Nebula NGC 281 The Pac-Man Nebula processed image. A stellar nursery in Cassiopeia, where young stars illuminate gas and dust, creating its distinctive game-character shape.

Last image for this morning. #NGC281 #PacmanNebula . Noticed this area using a separate star gazing app. I think I found tomorrow morning’s astronomy target. #nebula #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur
Stunning image of the Pacman Nebula (NGC 281), a vibrant emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia. The image showcases the nebula's intricate structures, including sculpted columns of dust and gas illuminated by the young stars of the embedded IC 1590 open cluster. The colors represent emissions from hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen atoms. This composite spans over 80 light-years.

The #PacmanNebula captured with a #OneShotColor camera #unfiltered will typically show up red like this, rather than multi colored as might come from a #Monochrome camera with #filters. Make sense? #LAAS #Astrophotography #ZWO #Astro #Space #Nebula #AstroPhoto

Did you know there’s a nebula that looks like Pac-Man? The Pac-Man Nebula (NGC 281), located about 9,200 light-years away in the Cassiopeia constellation.
This nebula is a massive star-forming region, with young, powerful stars shaping its unique mouth.

Pacman was so beloved by the world that Ninetendo made it a nebula in the Milky Way galaxy. #fakenews
