NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“IC 1848: The Soul Nebula” is copyrighted by Bob Andersson. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

The Soul Nebula, IC 1848, is a large star-forming region in the constellation Cassiopeia. It contains several open clusters of stars and a strong radio source, W5. Powerful winds from young, massive stars have carved out huge, evacuated bubbles within the nebula. The Soul Nebula is about 6,500 light-years away, a stellar nursery.
