Description

Game of Thrones returns for its final season and winter really is coming... Apparently...

So it is only fitting that I take a look at NGC 6188, which is sometimes described as the Fighting Dragons of Ara. At middle bottom is NGC 6164, a small planetary nebula, which some like to think is a dragon egg. An absolutely beautiful part of the sky.
