the wizard nebula  

 

 NGC 7380 is located in the constellation Cepheus about 7,000 light-years from Earth within the Milky Way Galaxy. The star cluster is embedded in a H II region , which spans some 110 light-years. The stars of NGC 7380 have emerged from this star-forming region in the last 5 million years or so, making it a relatively young cluster. In this image I want to show you the enormous amount of ionized hydrogen present inside the cluster.
