Nice shot, Steve. Plenty of detail in that pic.
One thing wrong with your info and why you need to be careful with Wikipedia...check it's veracity. The central star is 0.64 solar masses...that means the original star was probably around 1.5-2.5 solar masses (depending on how much mass was lost in the AGB stage). It's temp, 200000K, means it's relatively new. Probably only a few thousand years old.
