alacant Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Hi everyone Any ideas what this is? nova.astrometry.net doesn't annotate it so I decided 's'. Anyway, it's quite a nice patch. Starting with at astro-dark, it doesn't reach the meridian before sunrise. This looks like a good plan in general; catch it early in the east and let it go all -what's left of the- night at this time of year. Process: not easy to fix the background mess. The colour is all over the shop. Any ideas for stuff like this where it's all gas and dust? Cheers and thanks for looking. os700d @ ISO800 Edited June 22, 2020 by alacant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyvernp Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I think it's referred to as the propeller nebula. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craney Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) I have seen this called the Propeller Nebula ( DWB-111 ) ( Simeis 57 ). Edited June 22, 2020 by Craney 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
