Telescope: Stellarvue 80mm Triplet | Designation: Taken from my highly light polutted back yard. The Seagull Nebula SH2-292 / IC 2177 is a region of nebulosity that lies along the border between the constellations Monoceros and Canis Major. It is a roughly circular HII region centered on the Be star HD 53367. The name Seagull Nebula is sometimes applied by amateur astronomers to this emission region, although it more properly includes the neighboring regions of star clusters, dust clouds and reflection nebulae. This latter region includes the open clusters NGC 2335 and NGC 2343 and Sharpless SH2-293, 295, 297. |
