IC410 The Tadpoles in HA
The Tadpoles (IC410) is a great target that i have to revisit at some point to add OIII & SII data and possibly combine into a great mosaic with IC405 :D
The nebula known as IC 410 is home to a pair of intriguing structures popularly known as the "tadpoles." These are clumps of gas and dust left over from the formation of the cluster, and are likely forming yet new stars within them. The tails of the tadpoles are caused by the radiation pressure and solar wind from the stars of NGC 1893.
