A small (31 arc second) mag. 12 classic planetary nebula. The central
star is a Wolf-Rayet star and is one of the three hottest known star
(Miskey et. al., 2000).

Image up-sampled 1.25x.


I don't recall seeing the ansae so well before. How many 10 and 5
minute subs? This time of the year I rarely have seeing for such little
fellas. Course clouds forecast for the next 10 days won't help!
