Does anyone know exactly why NGC 6905 is dubbed 'Blue Flash' nebula.  I 
know it has an 'O' type star at its centre, so in a large enough scope, is 
it supposed it have a blue tinge?  Has anyone seen any flashing blue?

Thanks,
Paul.

Just because there is no destination in sight does not mean the road is not 
worth travelling.
