On the upper right, dressed in blue, is the Pleiades. Also known as the Seven Sisters and M45, the Pleiades is one of the brightest and most easily visible open clusters on the sky. The Pleiades contains over 3,000 stars, is about 400 light years away, and only 13 light years across. Surrounding the stars is a spectacular blue reflection nebula made of fine dust. A common legend is that one of the brighter stars faded since the cluster was named. On the lower left, shining in red, is the California Nebula. Named for its shape, the California Nebula is much dimmer and hence harder to see than the Pleiades. Also known as NGC 1499, this mass of red glowing hydrogen gas is about 1,500 light years away. Although about 25 full moons could fit between them, the above wide angle, deep field image composite has captured them both.

CALIFORNIA NEBULA NGC1499 In the dark sky and not far from the Pleiades, you can look for a beautiful California nebula in the constellation Perseus. This nebula got its name because of its resemblance to the state of California. The nebula bears the catalog name NGC 1499 and was discovered by Barnard in 1884. The nebula is about 100 light-years long and 1,500 light-ye...You can read the rest of the text here: https://lastronomy.com/best-price-telescopes/california-nebula-ngc1499/

NGC 1499 California Nebula in Ha + SII. While the clouds and rain hang about, I'm reprocessing some data from late last year. False color imaging is fascinating, and I'm retrying the bi-color, Hydrogen-alpha and Sulfur 2 made up of Red and Blue with equal parts Green. The dark clouds of interstellar dust and pockets of hydrogen stand out more this time. NGC1499 is an emission nebula in the constellation Perseus, about 1000 lightyears away from us. https://SaltwaterWitch.com

Explanation: Drifting through the Orion Arm of the spiral Milky Way Galaxy, this cosmic cloud by chance echoes the outline of California on the west coast of the United States. Our own Sun also lies within the Milky Way's Orion Arm, only about 1,500 light-years from the California Nebula. Also known as NGC 1499, the classic emission nebula is around 100 light-years long. The California Nebula shines with the telltale reddish glow characteristic of hydrogen atoms recombining with long lost electrons. The electrons have been stripped away, ionized by energetic starlight. Most likely providing the energetic starlight that ionizes much of the nebular gas is the bright, hot, bluish star Xi Persei just to the right of the nebula. A popular target for astrophotographers, this deep California Nebula image is a 6 panel telecopic mosaic and covers a wide field of view. The nebula lies toward the constellation Perseus, not far from the Pleiades.

California Nebula - NGV 1499 SHO Palette (Simulated) While gathering data on the Heart & Soul Nebula, I decided to begin getting some imaging done on the California Nebula. I was able to end up with 14 hours over four different nights this month with two short sessions and two longer ones. Using Astro Pixel Processor, I was able to split the color channels I captured using the L-eNhanced filter and then recombine them to simulate a SHO color palette . 140 x 360s Dark, flat, bias and dark flat frames 800 ISO - Bortle 8 Stacked in APP, processed in APP & PS .
