| Notes: | This is the first of several Barnard dark nebula I imaged in Auriga
in January 2007 ... I found positional discrepancies from my software
(Megastar v 5.0.12) for several nebulae ... B 29 is about 6 minutes
North/Northwest of the Megastar position (05h 06m 24s, +31d 36m 00s). This description from the on-line Edward Emerson Barnard "A Photographic Atlas of Selected Regions of The Milky Way":
