The Cats Paw Nebula
The Cats Paw Nebula is aptly named though some argue about too many toes. This complex hydrogen emission nebula is found just north of the tail of the scorpion in the constellation Scorpius and is quite faint for visual viewing especially in northern latitudes such as the location this image was taken. |
