NGC 1893 and the Tadpoles of IC 410

NASA APOD · Sander de Jong
COSMIC MESSAGE

This image of the faint emission nebula IC 410, captured with narrowband filters, reveals two remarkable inhabitants: the 'tadpoles.' These structures are made of gas and dust, partly obscured by foreground dust. The nebula surrounds NGC 1893, a cluster of young stars that formed only 4 million years ago.
