Image is in HST-palette, (HST=Hubble Space Telescope)

from the emission of ionized elements, R=Sulfur, G=Hydrogen and B=Oxygen.

Star colors are mixed from the NB channels, Red=H-a, G=O-III and B= 85%O-III + 15%H-a.



Sh2-129 is a diffused nebula in Cepheus. It locates about four degrees west from IC1396. This nebula has a very low surface brightness and there is very few images of it around, I haven't seen this in HST-palette before.

Image area is about three degrees wide. (Six full Moons side by side)
