IC 405 (also known as the Flaming Star Nebula, SH 2-229, or Caldwell 31) is an emission and reflection nebula[1] in the constellation Auriga, surrounding the bluish star AE Aurigae. It shines at magnitude +6.0. Its celestial coordinates are RA 05h 16.2m dec +34° 28′.[2] It surrounds the irregular variable star AE Aurigae and is located near the emission nebula IC 410, the open clusters M38 and M36, and the K-class star Iota Aurigae. The nebula measures approximately 37.0' x 19.0', and lies about 1,500 light-years away from Earth.[2] It is believed that the proper motion of the central star can be traced back to the Orion's Belt area.[2] The nebula is about 5 light-years across.[1
Flaming Lips show was like New Year's and Birthday and Christmas combined... truly amazing!! singing along to Yoshimi was great!
This is a National Recreation Area which spans the borders of Wyoming and Utah.
As you drive towards the enormous artificial lake which was formed by the impressive Flaming Gorge Dam you pass through some wonderful geological formations.
The area gets its name from the red rock.
Driving through this area is like driving through a 3D Geography text book!

Apparently, the "zoom" feature on my Razr doesn't zoom so much as it crops (with poor quality). This was disappointing.
