rbrecher Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I initially could find no name or catalogue number for this beautiful patch of nebulosity near the North America Nebula. With the help of my wife and daughter I quickly came to the conclusion that it should be named "the Fireball XL5 Nebula." Look below the image on the web post to see why! (It's catalogued as Sh2-119 and LBN400, officially, but I like my name better.) http://astrodoc.ca/sh2-119/ Clear skies,Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
