Description

I thought this was a faint galaxy when I first saw it in the archive because it looked like it had spiral arms. It's not a very visually appealing nebula but the collection does not discriminate! Apparently there's <a href="http://www.astro.washington.edu/users/balick/PNIC/PNimages_by_galcoord/345.4+00.1.IC4637.jpg" rel="nofollow">more</a> to this one than Hubble's exposures were able to capture. The PC chip where most planetary nebula are imaged seems to unfortunately not be very good at picking up faint details. I don't understand this.
