NGC 7139 - Planetary Nebula in Cepheus
NGC 7139 is a Planetary Nebula in the Cepheus constellation. NGC 7139 is situated close to the northern celestial pole and, as such, it is visible for most part of the year from the northern hemisphere. Given its visual magnitude of 13.3, NGC 7139 is visible with the help of a telescope having an aperture of 10 inches (250mm) or more.
The image below is a photograph of NGC 7139 from the Digitized Sky Survey 2 (DSS2 - see the credits section) taken in the red channel. The area of sky represented in the image is 0.5000x0.5000 degrees (30.00x30.00 arcmins).
