Description

Small but bright and pretty, NGC 6884 was<a href="http://stars.astro.illinois.edu/sow/n6884.html" rel="nofollow">known</a> to be a bright, round disk until Hubble took a look at it, revealing complex details. It's a shame that many planetary nebulas are so hard to see. It would appear even more bright if it were not for our Milky Way's interloping dust.
