Description

Jones-Emberson 1, also known as VV 47 or PK164+31.1, is an elusive, large Planetary Nebula in the constellation Lynx. Under non-ideal circumstances, it is best photographed with narrowband filters. This picture has been processed as RGB = Ha[OII][OIII], although the true origin of the red emission is the [NII] doublet rather than Ha in this particular case.
