Description

NGC6781 is a nice planetary nebula in Aquila. Its diameter (1.9 arcmin) is greater than that of the Lyra nebula (1.4), but its magnitude is 11.9 (vs. 8.8). The magnitude of the little central blue star is 15 I completed more than 14 hours of adquisition in five nights, but the humidity and the flexures in the guide system damaged the definition.
