IC1848

IC1848 - The "Embryo" or "Soul" Nebula

Object Description:
Located just over 4° N of h Persei, IC 1848 is a faint emission nebula located just SE of IC1805.  It is variously referred to as the "Soul Nebula" or "Embryo Nebula", due to its resemblance to a baby.  The same field of view also contains Collinder 33 and Collinder 34 star clusters as well as faint nebulae IC1871 and Sh2-198.

Both IC1848 and IC1805 are not visible to our naked eyes. IC1848 has a size of 60 arc minutes in east-west and 30 minutes in north-south direction.  The nebulae float together at a distance of about 2500 light years away.
