About this image

Finally got a clear enough sky to image this nebula for the first time this 'season'. Still had interference from thin cloud and jumpy seeing. Looks the same as in Grant's image of 11th November. Wait long enough though and it will change in some way!

A little above the nebula will be seen the trail of an asteroid. The JPL small object identifier tool suggests this is the main belt asteroid 2002 NT32.
