Planetary nebula

Steve Coe, observing with a 13” f/5.6, notes: “13" Sentinel 8/10 150X pretty faint, pretty large, little elongated 1.2 X 1, annular, the dark hole is seen with averted vision. Adding the UHC filter enhances the constrast and makes the hole much more obvious, a nice planetary for so close to the horizon, even from Sentinel.”

Tom Lorenzin: “11M; 2' diameter; large, round and faint; use N-filter and wide-field; 15M center star not visible in 8-in..”
