Thank you for sharing your photos - this is exactly what this project is all about! :-)
Planetary nebula in the constellation Lyra.
The nebula is located 2,300 light-years from Earth.
At the center of the nebula lies a white dwarf, which was the core of a star before it shed its outer layers. Before that, the star was similar to Mira Ceti, and its mass was about one solar mass.
