My vote is for The Shuttle Nebula.

Ravioli nebula has a nice ring to it!

To me, it looks like an ash grey charcoal briquette in a BBQ! The Charcoal nebula.

To me it appears to look like a five pointed star, a slightly tattered, ghostlike one.

The Nebula is quite obviously a Frosted Mini Wheat, from a box of Frosted Mini Shredded Wheat cereal. I knew I'd seen it somewhere before!

Here in Australia, we APOD fans think it looks a lot like the Australian 'sugar glider' flying possum.
Sugar Glider Nebula seems apt considering it looks a lot like sugar.
Thanks so much for the wonderful pics.
We expand our minds daily.

Looks like a feather cushion so "The cushion nebula" sounds great to me!

Starfleet Nebula.
To me it looks quite like the Star Trek Starfleet symbol.

As it looks like an animal skin I propose "The Golden Fleece Nebula" honouring the old Greeks' fantastic stories. ![:) :ssmile:](./images/smilies/smile.gif)
