    New planetary nebula around tyc 2139-1802-1 ?

    Hi everyone

    A Danish astroimager has spotted something in one of his shots near NGC 6820/NGC 6823. It's a small bubble centered on the star TYC 2139-1802-1. It's faintly shown in POSS II red:

    The object is unidentified in SIMBAD. Could he have discovered something new? It could be a part of the big NGC 6820 nebula complex, but it looks very well defined around the star, and detached from the other nebulae in the area.


    Clear skies!
