They are particularly prominent in the direction of both the north and south celestial poles. The vast nebula close to the south celestial pole is

The term was coined by Steve Mandel who defined them as "high galactic latitude nebulae that are illuminated not by a single star (as most nebula in the plane of the Galaxy are) but by the energy from the integrated flux of all the stars in the Milky Way. As a result, these nebulae are incredibly

While imaging M81 and M82 in
December 2004, Steve Mandel spotted a large nebula complex around both of the galaxies, after consulting with radio and optical astronomers Steve Mandel was able to confirm that he had come across a huge dust complex that wasn't very known. This led to him creating a
163:, nebulae appeared on 30 of the 600 plates taken. These were catalogued by B.T. Lynds and then described by Allan Sandage. Sandage and others took note of the dust characteristics but weren't aware of the Extended Red Emission generated by some of the dust particles.
