This object is part of the Cepheus Flare, located in the constellation Cepheus. It is a large expanse of cosmic dust that is likely condensing into a binary star system. There's not much information about the Cepheus Flare out there, but it is interesting to note that this image and exact explanation was used as the APOD for October 30 in both 2008 and 2010.
