LBN 595 is an emission and reflection nebula in Cassiopeia

LBN 595 is an emission and reflection nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. Lynds rated it brightness class 6 of 6, the faintest, and color class 2, bluish. It spans 2′ of sky. It is a faint target for long-exposure photography, and it is highest in the evening sky in November.

Emission and reflection nebula: a cloud where gas glows on its own, lit by the ultraviolet light of hot young stars, next to dust that scatters starlight. Photographs show red emission beside blue reflection.
