Ann A challenge for Ann, find the two globular clusters! I can only find one, near bottom, at about 5 o'clock. It is very obvious. But as for the other...

There are some hints of the catlike ears of NGC 1999 at 4 o'clock and some cool shapes in the outer gaseous regions, not often seen, such as the EGG (Evaporative Gaseous globule)...

It's wings resemble ethereal curtains drifting in Stellar winds. Taken the widefield Stellarvue SV70T and QSI 683wsg8 There...
