Description

Imaged on nights of 2020/9/19, 2020/9/25, 2020/10/10, 2020/10/11

Abell 57 (PK058-06.1) is an almost never imaged planetary nebula in Vulpecula. This is the first image on Astrobin. Abell57 is very small , measuring only 0.67 x 0.57 arc minutes and has a magnitude listed at 14.4. It shows well on the RGB image. The Oiii signal is much stronger than the Ha, and they have very similar distributions, so the resulting color is a uniform blue.

This is everything I could find on the web about this PN. Very obscure.
