Description:
This nice and faint (magnitude 16) nebula is located south from vantage point in the north. I was lucky to have a couple of clear nights although the south skies turn a little hazy with the low ground humidity. It is located in the constellation Grus at about 21h 59m 35" and - 39d 23' 8" at about 3,000 light years from earth. Info gathered from wikipedia.
