1 NGC 7662
Our first target is NGC 7662, the Blue Snowball planetary nebula. This is located in Andromeda, 2.3° west and 0.7° south of mag. +4.3 Iota (ι) Andromedae or 0.4° south-southwest of mag. +5.8 13 Andromedae. It’s a lovely example of a planetary nebula, bright and with a tangible non-stellar appearance even through a small scope. It shines at mag. +8.3 and has an overall diameter of around half an arcminute, although a typical view shows itcentre. Larger scopes may reveal an uneven edge to the nebula’s glow. □
