Ghost Of Jupiter

Julien Lecomte

I got to see this planetary nebula for the first time last night through my 12" scope, and I'm still in shock. The blue-green fluorescent color is absolutely surreal! The inner ring is not easy to separate from the glow, and the central star was only suspected during very brief moments of steadier seeing.
