IC 2220 Toby Jug Nebula
C 2220's origin lies in the expelled cloud of gas and dust emanating from the red giant star HD 65750, nestled within the heart of the nebula. As the expelled material interacts with starlight, it creates a mesmerizing display of bi-conical structures that form the distinctive shape resembling an old English drinking vessel known as a Toby Jug.
Named by three discerning British astronomers, the Toby Jug Nebula stands out among its celestial counterparts for its unique hue. Unlike most reflection nebulae, IC 2220 dons a warm orange color, adding a touch of cosmic elegance to its whimsical appearance.
IC2220 - Toby Jug Nebula
Here is the Toby Jug Nebula imaged with the CDK17 in Chile (Obstech El Sauce).
While there are many images of this out there, few feature the outer Ha halo that was only recently discovered (I dont know how recent or who by).
The Ha is extremely faint and it took 21 hours at bin 2x2 to reveal what is shown here.
