Description:
I found this tiny planetary 1º 45' south from the star Xi Cygni. It has an
stellar appearance with low powers, but disk starts to be seen at 100x. Best
seen at 167x. The planetary is very small and very bright, and its bluish
color is easy to see. In the moments of best seeing I can see an elongation on
the nebula following the North-South direction (approximately).
