Hi all,

A two-pane mosaic capturing the core area of the Running Chicken nebula (IC 2948) has been uploaded. This pretty large emission nebula was not discovered until early 20th century (1908). It has a good number of Bok’s globules and a fairly strong Oxygen emission. You can find the image and more information at:

IC 2948, a mosaic

Enjoy,
Josep
