IC 1795 The Fish-head Nebula - 1080 resolution processed image. It's an emission nebula in Cassiopeia, a star-forming region that's a smaller, brighter part of the vast Heart Nebula complex. It's approximately 6,000 light-years away.
IC 1795 The Fish-head Nebula - 1080 unprocessed image. Sir William Herschel discovered the brightest part (NGC 896) in 1787. Edward Barnard later photographed the IC 1795 portion in 1890.
IC 1795 The Fish-head Nebula - 4K processed image. Despite being just a "tip" of the larger Heart Nebula (IC 1805), the Fish-head Nebula's brightest part (NGC 896) was actually discovered first!
IC 1795 The Fish-head Nebula - 4K unprocessed image. It is approximately 6,000 light-years away from Earth, located in the Perseus spiral arm of the Milky Way galaxy.
Last images of the morning. Here is #IC1795 #TheFish-headNebula. Figured how the 4K imaging option can be turned on. First set of images are the standard 1080 resolution images and the next set are the 4K images. #seestar #S50 #space #astronomy #amateur
