Description

NGC 896 is a diffuse nebula better known as the Fish Head Nebula. It is located in Cassiopeia at the tip of the Heart Nebula. It fit nicely into my FOV with the APM telescope and ccd setup. This target is ideally set in an area where it can be imaged from dusk till dawn unless the dew starts to settle on the optics.
