IC 2149
IC 2149 is a planetary nebula in the constellation of Auriga. It is a small, bright planetary nebula with something to offer in telescopes of most sizes.[1]
Characteristics
Visually appears with an apparent magnitude of 10.6 and a size of 12 arc seconds and like other objects of its class a nebular filter may help on its observation.[1]
Its distance to the Solar System has been estimated to be around 1.1 kiloparsecs, having a total mass of 0.03 solar masses and being thought to have been produced by a low-mass star.[2]
Some authors have proposed the planetary nebula that our Sun will produce will be similar to this one, but smaller.[3]
