About this image

Jacoby 1 is a planetary nebula in Bootes, discovered by George Jacoby of The Deep Sky Hunters group. It is renowned for being faint, although claims that it is the faintest planetary nebula are highly exaggerated. This was a collaboration with my great friend Sven Eklund.
Data capture by myself and Sven Eklund from our remote observatories in Spain.
