Wray 17-31

Things were good at Wiruna last weekend. Some interruptions from clouds, but long crystal clear periods.

Wray 17-31 is a very faint planetary nebula in Vela, discovered by James Wray in 1966. It's a little over 2 arc minutes in diameter and at mag 15 it is very faint.

Exposure was relatively short at 4.8 hours.
