IC 410 Tadpoles Nebula

IC410 is an emission nebula surrounding the star cluster NGC1893. It is about 12000 light years away. The nebula is about 100 light-years across. 

At the upper left of the nebulosity are two objects which resemble tadpoles. The gas is being blown out of the nebula by the stellar winds from the star cluster.
