Summary

Description

Here is a supernova remnant known as the Veil Nebula. A section called Pickering's Triangle.

"It was discovered photographically in 1904 by Williamina Fleming (after the New General Catalogue was published), but credit went to Edward Charles Pickering, the director of her observatory, as was the custom of the day."
