Description

Aka PK 164+31.1 this planetary nebula lies about 1600 light years away in the Lynx constellation. Low surface brightness, it has a very dim, 16th magnitude blue white dwarf central star.

Once more, this project was stymied by terrible winter weather and clouds. I wanted more data, including RGB stars. Not likely this year.

This image includes data from two different mono cameras, but the same telescope and filters. 12/29/2020 data is from ASI294MM, 2/1/2021 data is from ASI183MM.
