APOD 1.7

This collection of stars and dust clouds are located in the northen part of the constellation cassiopeia. There is a very prominant red color in this galaxy. This is because the hydrogen atoms are emmiting the light in form of H-Alpha light. The total distance that is shown in this picture is approximately 70 light years. Perseus is also next to his area of space this is along the spiral arm of our milky way. THIS IS SO CHAIT
