At 6.4 billion years of age, NGC 188 sits above our galaxy plane, embedded in the interstellar medium of the Northern sky. The North Star, Polaris can be seen just below the open cluster of stars. #Astrophotography

Abel 85 or the Garlic Nebula is a supernova remnant within the constellation of Cassiopeia. Around 9,780 light years away and about 10,000 years old, this is a challenging and rewarding backyard target. app.astrobin.com/i/to1gnd
