Photo reader astronomy: CED 214 / NGC 7822
© Marcus Horn
As part of the “cosmic question mark,” CED 214 and NGC 7822 are two very well-known objects in the Cepheus constellation. Many new stars are forming in this region, which is about 3,000 light-years away from Earth. After taking a wide-angle photo of this area some time ago, I was now interested in using a full re-edit to take a deeper look at the center of this area, which impresses with its haze and dark bands of dust. I created the image in Hubble (SHO) palette colors.
