Planetary Nebula

Hopefully compression will not kill it. This a small Planetary Nebula - WRAY 17-62. The FOV of the image is 4.5' X 3.15', and the PN measures 29" X 30". It is a fairly dim object.

Instruments Used:

RC10 fl 9.1 / SBIG STL-11000 / AP-900 / Ha Filter Baader

Well Terry, I can give a ringing endorsement of this image but I won't go round in circles or create smoke rings, it is a nice capture of a tiny target

Thank you very much Mike. Tiny targets are very interesting. Circles in fields, not so much.

Great little PN off the beaten path. Always nice to see an obscure target!
