What's that thing under HIP 98465? Looks like wizard nebula but isn't.

Stellarium doesn't have a label for it and I wanted to give it a go... anyone know what it is or what catalogue(s) it's in?

Thanks,

In that region of Cygnus, there's a great deal of things that it could be you've found. It's being in the Great Rift region and all.

Good question! Sorry I can't find a definitive answer,

ps - PLN = Planetary Nebulae

Sorry to "necro-post"...

But Thanks Dave!

I was looking for an explanation of what I am imaging tonight, 07-05-16. This was what came up in my search.

As per usual for me, I see something interesting in Stellarium, and I see what comes out in my imaging.

Real scientific like...

So I'm as far as having my Ha7nm filter in, and at a 1200s single raw file shot. (A 600s raw looked promising.)

I'm having a great run of good luck.

Hi
I thank you too [after 2 years!].

I was searching the same today - same as you SonnyE !

Have you imaged it?

Any tips for a mediocre amateur?

Thanks
