   Very likely my last image of 2023, this is the Jellyfish Nebula (IC443), the remnant of a supernova in the constellation Gemini. The two large orange stars are Mu and Eta Geminorum, two red giants at the feet of the rightmost of the two "stick figures" that form the constellation Gemini.

     This object at RA 06h 21' 40", Dec 23° 35' 00" approx. looks like a planetary nebula, however I could not find any PN it in the Perek-Kohoutek Catalogue of Planetary Nebulae near these coordinates.
