Simeis 147
Simeis 147, also known as the Spaghetti Nebula, is a supernova remnant (SNR) in the Milky Way. Straddling the border between the constellations Auriga and Taurus, the nebula was discovered in 1952 at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory. It is difficult to observe due to its extremely low brightness.Photograph: Rogelio Bernal Andreo
