LBN 835 is an emission nebula in Taurus
LBN 835 is an emission nebula in the constellation Taurus . Lynds rated it brightness class 4 of 6, moderately faint, and color class 4, the reddest, strongest on the red print. It spans 20′ × 7′ of sky. It is a faint target for long-exposure photography, and it is highest in the evening sky in January.
Emission nebula: a cloud of gas, mostly hydrogen, made to glow by the ultraviolet light of hot young stars. It shines in the red light of hydrogen-alpha, and a nebula filter helps it stand out from the sky.
