Description:
Here's a lesser known nebula, Sh2-170, The Little Rosette Nebula. Located in the constellation of Cassiopeia, at a distance of 7,500 light years, it's just not a common target for many new astronomers. In fact, there's little readily available data on its magnitude. It's a fairly dim emission Nebula and rarely imaged.
