Hi John,

Thanks very much ideed. It appeared that PGC 46491, ESO 576-32, or ESO 576-40 were in the same region. I wasn't sure about this when Don first told me it was ESO 576-40 which seemed to appear in a different region when I first looked it up in Stellarium. Scaling up a bit now it appeared to be the right location. However I still was puzzled that I couldn't seem to find any images of it, given the fact it wasn't the faintest or smallest object in that part of the sky, particularly with a skull-like structure which resembled the mysterious NASA image in some sense.

Kind regards,
John
