Ring Nebula

This image contains a Planetary Nebula named Ring Nebula!!

The Ring Nebula is a planetary nebula in the northern constellation of Lyra. Such a nebula is formed when a star, during the last stages of its evolution before becoming a white dwarf, expels a vast luminous envelope of ionized gas into the surrounding interstellar space.

I used my Fotocart 130EQ Telescope and ZWO ASI 224MC Planetary Camera to capture this beautiful celestial object.
