Dear Astrobinners, I don't have the coordinates of these named and nicknamed astronomical objects beyond the solar system. Perhaps one or more astrophotographers are familiar with one or more (or many) of these names and nicknames. Here's Part 1 (A - M). - Ana's object (galaxy in Draco) - Apple (planetary nebula Brand 100 in Puppis), aka Manzana nebula - BIDZ 1 (or B.I.D.Z. 1 ?) (planetary nebula in Centaurus) - Black widow nebula (in Circinus) - Blue sausage (galaxy MCG+10-22-009 in Draco) (BINGO N°1 ! According to SIMBAD this is a Seyfert 1 galaxy at 15:15 / +61°12', in Draco) (thanks Francis Moreau!) (the photograph in SIMBAD indeed shows a blue sausage shaped object) - Chamaeleon infrared nebula - Camel / the camel (ZTF 20 acigmel in ??) (see Wikipedia: Fast blue optical transient) - Cosmic 6 (planetary nebula Minkowski 2-73 in Lacerta) - Carpenter 1 (aka BDB 229, FSR 1086, MWSC 732 in ??) - Double bubble (Shapley IV in Dorado) - Double double quasar (in Lynx) - Eggs for breakfast (in ??) - Eighth note nebula (Lamont-Hussey 120-N55 in Dorado), aka Quaver - El Kanbi 7 (telescopic asterism in Pisces) - Eridanus star cluster (?) (PGC 15053) - Faith group (Holmberg 49 in Andromeda) - Fawn / The fawn (AT 2023 fhn in ??) (see Wikipedia: Fast blue optical transient), aka Finch / The finch - Finch / The finch (AT 2023 fhn in ??) (see Wikipedia: Fast blue optical transient), aka Fawn / The fawn - Frankenstein galaxy (MCG+00-05-048 in Cetus) (BINGO N°2 ! According to SIMBAD this is a LINER-type active galaxy nucleus at 1:54 / -0°08', in Cetus) (it is also known as UGC 1382) - Galactic ghoul (nebula DR 6 in Cygnus) - Garden sprinkler (planetary nebula Henize 3-1475 in Sagittarius) - Grus supercluster - Guitar nebula (in Cepheus) - Hammer nebula (planetary nebula Van den Bergh-Racine 5 in Centaurus) - Hydra-Centaurus supercluster (SCL 128) - Hyperion proto-supercluster (in Sextans) - Illusive planetary (He 1-5 in Sagitta) - Inch worm (telescopic asterism in Lynx) - Jellyfish nebula (planetary nebula Brand 378 in Crux) - Keyhole planetary (Wray 19-40 in Circinus) - Koala (The koala) (ZTF 18 abvkwla in ??) (see Wikipedia: Fast blue optical transient) - Kronberger triangle (Holmberg 682 in Virgo), involved: MCG+01-38-006 and MCG+01-38-006A (BINGO N°3 ! According to SIMBAD this is a galaxy at 14:51 / +6°48', in Virgo) (and indeed, the photograph in SIMBAD shows a peculiar triangle shaped object) (I wonder if it is already photographed by one or more Astrobinners) (strange: Holmberg 682 is not mentioned in SIMBAD's identifiers for that object) - Kuwano's object/star (variable star V-1407 in Aquila) - Kuwano's object/star (variable star V-4021 in Sagittarius) - Lambda-Lambda (telescopic asterism Parker 2 in Cassiopeia) - Large quasar group (U1.11 in Leo/Virgo) - Leo A supercluster (galaxies) - Leo chain (galaxies) - Leo-Sextans supercluster (galaxies) - Leo supercluster (SCL 93) (galaxies) - Leo-Virgo supercluster (SCL 107) (galaxies) - Little blue fox (planetary nebula in Vulpecula) - Little California nebula (Sharpless 84 in Sagitta) - Lucifer (the so-called companion star of the sun) (need no coordinates, because there's nothing) - Madore's monster (Reduzzi-Rampazzo 164 in Carina), aka PGC 25455 and PGC 25460 (BINGO N°4 ! According to SIMBAD this is a couple of galaxies at 9:04 / -72°03') (aka ESO 60-26 and ESO 60-27) - Maffei 1 group (Lyons Groups of Galaxies 104 / L.G.G. 104, in Cassiopeia) - Makani galaxy (SDSS J211824.06+001729.4 in Aquarius) - Manzana nebula (see: Apple) - Mini Magellanic cloud (M.M.C., in Hydra/Tucana) - Mirror of Venus (asterism in Orion) (telescopic asterism?) - Mouse (?) (in Sagittarius) |

Well, Francis, I must say, every now and then I come across SIMBAD to get the coordinates of 2000.0 for a certain multi-catalogued or named star, but... I should explore SIMBAD a little bit further! Thanks for the advice! - Makani galaxy (SDSS J211824.06+001729.4 in Aquarius) This is a rather easy one because the coordinates are already in the catalog number. |
