On my Vespera constellation pages I present objects that are located in the corresponding constellations. This page shows DSO in the constellation of Cassiopeia, plus the Perseus Double Cluster NGC 884/869 and the planetary nebula NGC 40 (Cepheus), which are nearby.

Note: As I sold my Vespera in June 2024, no more new photos will be added.

Constellation pages: Orion, Taurus, Monoceros, Eridanus - Gemini, Auriga - Cassiopeia - Cygnus, Lyra, Vulpecula, Sagitta - Andromeda, Triangulum, Perseus - Cepheus - Leo, Cancer - Virgo, Coma Berenices

Introduction

On my Vespera constellation pages I present objects that are located in the corresponding constellations. These pages are intended to help you see neighboring DSOs in context. In the case of several constellations, these lie next to each other so that the photos cover a coherent area of the sky.

This page shows DSO in the constellation of Cassiopeia (the sky "W"), plus the Perseus Double Cluster NGC 884/869 and the planetary nebula NGC 40 (Cepheus), which are nearby. More photos can be found on the DSO detail pages (click the corresponding link).

Note: Where possible, I selected photos on which several objects can be seen at the same time.
