This is not a supernova remnant but a planetary nebula. It was produced by a sun-like star shortly before becoming a white dwarf. Known as the “soap bubble” for obvious reasons, it is often overlooked by many astrophotographers because it’s very dim and hard to capture. After I took this data, it became my favorite planetary nebula.

Yesterday we visited the #Volkssternwarte #Köln ✨🔭 The weather was overcast, so conditions were limited, but we were still able to observe #Jupiter and its four #GalileanMoons #Io, #Europa, #Ganymede, and #Callisto.

The main #telescope is a 600 mm #Cassegrain reflector with a focal length of 5,400 mm, which enables high-magnification observations of #planets, the #Moon, double #stars, and bright planetary #nebulae.
