IC 410 the Tadpoles
http://bit.ly/1huQ8JY
Copyright: Steve Coates
IC 410 an emission nebula about 12,000 light-years from Earth in the
constellation Auriga. Near the center of the nebulous region is a star cluster (
NGC 1893) and just to the bottom right of this cluster lies two structures that
resemble tadpoles. These structures are made of leftover hydrogen and dust from
the formation of the star cluster and the "tails" are from the solar wind coming
from the stars of NGC 1893.

Here are four early morning comets imaged November 8 2013. Several of the comets are getting more difficult to image as they move easterly and approach the horizon where they are immersed in Zodiacal light and twilight.

I inserted a corresponding AllSky image in each comet image. Within each Allsky image is a small circle marking the rough location of the comet during the exposure. I also annotated each comet image with Sky quality readings. Interestingly there were high clouds making the sky slightly brighter during the Lovejoy image than the ISON image, this is evident in both the Allsky image and the SQM readings.

Image scale is preserved but the screen stretch is not. Copyright: Dave Erickson http://www.hbastro.com

Did you post the right version, Meteo? There's some really weird things going on with the trees to the left and right of the shack.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.
