A newly reported variable star in Cepheus?

A newly reported variable star in Cepheus?
You might expect that all the bright high-amplitude variable stars
have been well studied by the many amateur astronomers interested in
this branch of science. This is certainly not the case as can be seen
from looking at the background to this star in Lacerta - where l ...

NGC 281, an emission nebula in Cassiopeia
SkyMap Pro gave me an excellent idea of the size and shape of this
emission nebula but no real idea of its compexity. I was very
surprised when I first saw the opaque, dark knots of gas and dust
