NGC 5367 and cometary globule CG12

NGC 5367 is a reflection nebula associated with the cometary globule CG12 in the Centaurus constellation. Discovered in 1976 on an ESO/SRC Sky Survey plate taken with the UK Schmidt telescope, CG12 is in contrast to the most other Cometary Globules, because it is far away from the galactic disk. The nebula NGC 5367 (also catalogued as IC 4347) reflects light from two bluish stars of the binary system h4636 (the stars are from spectral type B4 and B7).
