The cooperation between astronomers and amateurs offers innovation potential for research, in which ideas and impulses can flow into research and lead to new perspectives and questions.
Since 2023, we have discovered 14 new, previously unknown planetary nebulae, as well as other Young Stellar Objects, some with a bipolar structure. These are Herbig-Haro Objects. Further data still needs to be collected on some objects.
Some of these objects have been registered in HASH PN database (Hong Kong University/Australian Astronomical Observatory/Strasbourg Observatory H-alpha Planetary Nebula Database).
There is also an interaction with the Karl Schwarzschild Observatory in Tautenburg near Jena, Thuringia, and the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Heidelberg.
The new objects are a visual and photographic challenge for amateur astronomers. The sizes of compact nebulae vary between 10 and 30 arcseconds. The brightest candidates can be observed visually from 14", photographically from 8 inches aperture.
Therefore we are looking for partners and supporters, amateurs, astronomers, ideas and impulses for research may be created.
