Description

This is the first amateur high-res image of HE 2-11, a post common-envelope nebula located on the corner of GUM14. We discovered this tiny object shooting a photo of GUM14/15 with T5 from Chilescope Sercice. There are no high-res images of this planetary nebula in the net, except those related to two researches by professional astronomeurs (images taken with ESO's NTT).

This image has been taken within the ShaRA#4 open project with RC1000 from Chilescope Service, combining RGB/HOO subs
More info about the image, the authors and some "scientific" analysis here:  https://astrotrex.wordpress.com/2023/04/28/shara4-part-i-bubbles-and-bubble/

We friendly named HE 2-11 "The Spin Nebula", thanks to its shape and its origin!
