IC 59 and IC 63 in Cassiopeia.
Image Credit & Copyright: Ken Crawford (Rancho Del Sol Obs). Looking toward the constellation Cassiopeia, the colourful skyscape features the swept back, comet-shaped clouds IC 59 (left) and IC 63. About 600 light-years distant, but they are slowly dissipating under the influence of ionizing ultraviolet radiation from hot, luminous star gamma Cas. Gamma Cas is physically located only 3 to 4 light-years from the nebulae, off the upper right edge of the frame. Slightly closer to gamma Cas, IC 63 is dominated by red H-alpha light emitted as the ionized hydrogen atoms with electrons. Farther from the star, IC 59 shows proportionally less H-alpha emission but more of the characteristic blue tint of dust reflected starlight.

Known as “the prehistoric Sistine Chapel,” the Lascaux Caves, a cave complex in southwestern France, contain some of the most remarkable palaeolithic cave paintings in the world, from at least 15,000 years ago. The cave was discovered on 12 September 1940 by four teenagers, Marcel Ravidat, Jacques Marsal, Georges Agnel, and Simon Coencas, as well as Ravidat’s dog, Robot. Public access was made easier after World War II. By 1955, the carbon dioxide produced by 1,200 visitors per day had visibly damaged the paintings. The cave was closed to the public in 1963 in order to preserve the art.
