About this object
NGC 7822 is a large star forming region in the Constellation Cepheus. The area is also known as Sh2-171 and contains the star cluster Berkley 59. NGC 7822 contains the star BD+66 1673, one of the hottest stars known within 3000 light years of the sun. It's the main player causing the pillars of hydrogen gas. NGC 7822 lies some 3000 light years distant. I present two images above. A relatively high resolution view taken with a Stellarvue SVX 152T 6" refractor and a low resolution, wide field view, taken with a Stellarvue SV70T refractor and Canon 6D DSLR. Both image were taken under the dark skies of western OK.
