I looked for the Ring between Sheliak and Sulafat and I believe that I
located it. It seems to be closer to Sheliak. However, I am wondering
whether I am confusing it with a star.
When you look carefully at the ring nebula you can tell it is not a
star. It is a little closer to beta than it is to gamma. To really
see the ring shape you want to push the magnification up to 40 x or
so. The ring is pretty bright and can take a lot of magnification.
