Very nice, never heard it called the jelly fish before only the crescent nebula.

Great image but please correct me if I am wrong but this is the cresent nebula isn't it ?  (NGC 6888) or it looks like it.
To me I thought  IC443 was the jellyfish nebula.

Or is it called different names by different people as I guess they are not official names ?

My opinion is that it looks more like the JellyFish nebula than the JellyFish nebula 😂.  Some of these names are very tenuous e.g. M1 - most crabs have legs 😉

Beautiful image btw 🙂

@Adam J @teoria_del_big_bang @Priesters had in my head jellyfish 🤣 at least I got the correct NGC number we all know what it is lol 😆 👍

Yes I would agree I think it does look like a jellyfish and a far better name than a cresent.
I think images that do not capture the whole of the jellyfish structure maybe do look like a cresent but this one certainly has the whole structure visible.

No doubt at all what it was and a great image it is too, I do not think this is an easy target 🙂
