Would Starry Night Pro 8 Identify The Objects Pointed To In This Image? (Answer: Yes!)

The only new feature in SN Pro 8 that I find potentially useful is the new DB.  When I zoomed into the area around NGC2264 shown in this image the objects pointed too in the image didn't have any labels.  But one is clearly some sort of nebula and the other sure looks like an open cluster.

If I zoomed in with version 8 would I see more labels or at least a more detailed photographic background where I could see these objects?  Thanks!

    Hi Tom, 

    What is the object in the main object in the middle of this image?  I will attach a screenshot of this area of the sky, with your specific object labelled and described via SN8.

    Yes, you can download DSS images, acquiring much more detail, for any area of the sky.

    Thanks!
