That’s likely a voorwerp or similar ionizing phenomenon

nice spot :face_with_monocle::+1:

Yes, It’s in HASH listed as a PN candidate but I am not so sure, If there are further observations of this object that would be lovely! Only if Hubble or JWST has a spare moment…

Very strange though

It’s not in HASH from what I can tell. It’s overlapping a galaxy, so as I said, likely a voorwerp or similar.

So it’s not a PN? after you;re saying that’s an ionization of something, a voorwerp? :face_with_monocle:

Correct.

Is there spectroscopic information on this object?

Can’t find any spectra on this, checked SIMBAD, Vizier, NED, MAST, etc.
