So, I put them in place. They are Rotten Egg, Hourglass, Double Jet and Gomez´s Hamburger. The photos belong to Hubble. The nebula Hourglass is 8,000 light years from Earth (Musca). The nebula Double Jet (M2-9) is 2,100 light years from our planet (Ophiuchus). The nebula of Pumpkin (or Rotten Egg) is 5,000 light years from us (Puppis). In 1985 the chilean Arturo Gomez discovered the nebula Gomez´s Hamburger, from the observatory in Cerro Tololo (Chile) and it is located 6,500 light years from you and me (Sagittarius).
