Details:
Another great summer target. The Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635) I find it fascinating that the glowing shell is gas in the constellation Cassiopeia, created by the powerful stellar winds from a massive, hot star at its center. The star's intense radiation and winds push against a surrounding cloud of interstellar gas, forming a bubble about 7 light-years across, which glows as the hydrogen atoms are ionized.
