Here's a gorgeous image of what is known as #SoulNebula, #EmbryoNebula, or #IC1848. This #EmissionNebula is located 6,500 light years away from Earth. These areas were carved out by radiation and winds from the regions most massive stars. This is actually the best evidence for a theory called trigger star formation. It's when the carving of these cavities pushes gasses together to form / ignite stars. #astronomy #astrophotography #nebula
