The Lobster Claw Nebula: A Cosmic Delicacy
The Lobster Claw Nebula, also known as Sh2-157, is an awe-inspiring emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia, approximately 11,000 light-years away from Earth. Its distinctive shape, resembling a crustacean’s appendage, has earned it its popular name.
In one image, I was able to capture 3 nebula. The Bubble, Lobster Claw, and the Northern Lagoon Nebula.
