Monoceros: The Seahorse, Flying Bat and Fireworks

In the cosmic void,
Seahorse's haunting beauty,
Shrouded in darkness.

Located 1200 light years away in Cepheus, the Seahorse Nebula is a cloud of dark dust in the shape of a seahorse. Below the Flying Bat nebula appears to fade out of the cosmic void. Above the seahorse you will see the distant Fireworks galaxy shrouded in faint dust.
