PRESENTATION:

 Planetary Nebula – What we think we know?

By Larry Mitchell 

I will be discussing some new discoveries regarding planetary nebulae.  These are fascinating objects to view through a telescope as no two of them are alike.  New discoveries are constantly being made about these fascinating objects and I will cover some of these.  

Following the main presentation, our recurring monthly presentations will include Constellation of the Month  by Terri Zittritsch.
