Description

NGC 2371 is a 10 Arcmin Long Planetary Nebula located in Gemini. I was surprised that I was able to reveal the small pink jet of gas on the upper right side of the nebula. This feature is prominent on Hubble images of the nebula. Taken on 9 nights between Jan 30th and Feb 18th 2023 from SkiesAway remote observatory with my 14 inch CDK.
