The Heart and Soul Nebulas
Two bright emission nebulae, nicknamed Heart and Soul, are found in the constellation Cassiopeia. The Heart Nebula, officially IC 1805, is on the right and has a shape reminiscent of a classical heart symbol. Both nebulae shine brightly in the red light of energized hydrogen. Several young open star clusters populate the image, visible in blue.
