Image Information
|
After seeing an image of this object posted on an
astronomy Yahoo group I decide to try my hand at it. Finding coordinates
to center this object proved a bit hard but on the second night of
trying I finally zeroed it in. According to newscientist.com, this
extremely faint nebula was discovered by amateur Dave Jurasevich of the
Mount Wilson Observatory
in California on July 6 ,2008. You can read the full article
