NGC 6776 mis-identified?

[Cosmic Geoff]

I had considerable trouble trying to obtain a verified image of NGC6776. Taking the image wasn't the problem, but confirming the object was.  Virtualcolony.com and several other online sources quote it as being the same object as NGC 6884 (in Cygnus) while my Synscan and Cartes du Ciel indicate that it's a separate object in Lyra.

What you have imaged is NGC6884 in Cygnus.....again from SkySafari......

NGC 6884 is a 11th magnitude Planetary Nebula appearing in the constellation Cygnus. It is 5354 light years from our solar system. NGC 6884 appears roughly 0.1 x 0.1 arcminutes in size, corresponding to a physical diameter of 0 light years.

 

Forgive me if i've misread your query, what is the object in Lyra described as??

 

Nice image by the way

Ah......you confused me by miss typing your title, I've just seen NGC6766 in your image title, not NGC6776.

NGC6766 is the same as NGC6884 in Cygnus, it was so good they named it twice!!.......
