Filter(s): O III
Object(s): PNG 232.4-1.8, M1-13, Minkowski 1-13
Category: Planetary nebula.
Class:
Constellation: CMa
Data: mag 12,6 size 36" ?
Position: RA 07h:21m 15s DEC 18°:08' 37"
Description:
Pos: 07 21 15 / -18 08 37. Fairly bright PN that responds well to the OIII
filter. At 342x it appears as a small, round ~10" disk that is brighter towards
the inner part. The edge is quite clearly defined, though not sharp. The NW
part of the tiny disk seems to be slightly brighter. I could not see any sign
of a fainter outer shell, so the diameter of the object given in Uranometria
does not correspond with my observations. The program Guide 6 gives 10" as the
figure for the diameter of M1-13. The planetary is located less than 1' N of an
11mag star. Easy object that was not so easy to find with low magnification (131x).
