description IC 1295 Overview

IC 1295 is a planetary nebula in the constellation Scutum. Its visible form includes several shell-like layers of gas expelled during the late evolution of its central star, and long-exposure images can show a greenish appearance caused by emission from ionized atoms. The object is faint compared with many brighter planetary nebulae, so detailed observations generally require a telescope and suitable filters or extended exposure.
