NGC 7510

Also known as Collinder 454, this striking magnitude 7.9 open cluster in Cepheus is approximately 11,000 light years distant, and relatively young at approximately 10 million years old. It covers ten arc minutes of sky. I threw in a couple of hours of Ha as well as it sits right on the periphery of Sh2-157.
