Description

Abell 7 / Aro 215 is a very faint planetary nebula at 13+ magnitude located in the constellation Lepus, not often imaged due to it difficult to pick up without a lot of hours of exposure. This is my initial attempt over 3 nights and am looking forward to getting more exposure to bring out more of the particular object.

Located at 1800 LY from us, above Orion ( S. Hemisphere) or below (N. Hemisphere), it also has a couple of distant galaxies in the background.
