Description

Can you see it? I hope you can, but I couldn't until I used Siril's plate-solving feature.

IC 2003 is a magnitude 12 planetary nebula.

At first I doubted that it was IC 2003, but there isn't another cyan dot in my uncropped image, plus the plate-solving tag was in that area. EDIT: ASTROBIN PLATESOLVING SHOWS THAT IT IS IC 2003.
I think the image is a little warped, and that is why SIRIL plate-solving is not totally accurate.

Here's an inverted version, the orange red dot is IC 2003.
