Barnard 150 (Seahorse) - (LDN 1082) - Dark Nebula
Patrick Nielsen –

Barnard 150, also known as Seahorse Nebula, is a dark molecular cloud of dust in Cepheus constellation, so thick, that it absorbs all the light that comes from the stars behind it. This molecular cloud is part of our Milky Way galaxy, one of the 182 objects cataloged by astronomer Edward E. Barnard and it lies at about 1200 Light Years away. Cloud location on the Milky Way’s plane, makes it stand out on the background completely filled with colorful stars of any age and size.
Due to all of the light emitted from these stars, this molecular cloud can be observed. And with rotation of the image by 90 degrees, one can easily recognize why this cloud is named of “Seahorse Nebula”. This nebula is about 1 degree in size, width of two Moons. What is also interesting about this cloud, as it have 3 highly dense dust cores, which actually is a star formation regions. They were cataloged by Lynds and named LDN 1082 A, B and C.
