It is clear to everyone that astronomy at all events compels the soul to look upwards, and draws it from the things of this world to the other.

Planetary Nebula

This image appears in the October issue of Astronomy Magazine, and seemed to be a challenge for me to image, so that I did, while always trying to get the star that is located inside the ring of this 12.5 magnitude 42 second diameter nebula.

Tough one
