About this image

FP J0721+0133 (aka PN G215.0+07.4) was discovered as part of the MASH survey of planetary nebulae around 2004.
However it was subsequently redesignated as ionised interstellar medium. Recently I was imaging it, alongside its brighter companion Abell 20, which is a true PN. This revealed [OIII] emission in FP J07221+133.  As a result FP J07221+133 has now been reclassified as a possible PN.
