	The Finnish M27
		The trial rifles of the m/27 series were marked with an "A" to denote the shape and contuor of the neck area of the chamber.
		Another indication that the barrels were actually recontoured m/27 standard barrels is that the VKT made barrels of 1935 exhibit a different type of crown as those of the Tikkakoski barrels that were purposely ordered and built as short rifle length.
		It was not until 1937 that a decision was made to fit the m/27 with a sight bracket on of the left rear side of the receiver.

	M27 - Dumbbell Nebula
		M27 is the second largest planetary nebulae in the sky and is located in Vulpecula within the northern Milky Way.
		M27 is an object with high surface brightness, so even small telescope yield pleasing views at moderate magnifications.
		M27 looks best without filter, but under a bright moonlit sky you can work some kind of "magic trick": The Nebula won't be observable at all without filter to inexperienced observers, even experienced observers will only see it very dimly.

		Messier 27 (M27) is now known to be an excellent example of a gaseous emission nebula created as a sun-like star runs out of nuclear fuel in its core.
		The nebula forms as the star's outer layers are expelled into space, with a visible glow generated by atoms excited by the dying star's intense but invisible

		The central star of M27 is quite bright at mag 13.5, and an extremely hot blueish subdwarf dwarf at about 85,000 K (so the spectral type is given as O7 in the Sky Catalog 2000).
		As for most planetary nebulae, the distance of M27 (and thus true dimension and intrinsic luminosity) is not very well known.
		They were "stacked" and floating point averaged and dark subtracted in Megafix, then histogram optimized and digitally expanded (DDP), and exported to Photoshop 3.0 as a TIF file where it was resized and given a mild unsharp mask.

		Here, we are looking at the "equator' of the nebula, whereas with M57 we look down through the "pole." If we could swing around 90 degrees to the left, M27 would appear much like the Ring Nebula.
		Since the central star, the one that ejected all of this material, is much fainter than the nebula, we can conclude that this star emits most of its radiation in regions of the electromagnetic spectrum that are not visable to the eye.
		The distance to M27 is not known with a high degree of accuracy and is generally accepted to be around 1200 light years.

		M27, also called the "Dumbbell Nebula," is a planetary nebula.
		It consists of light (mostly at 500.7 nm wavelength) emitted by "double ionized" oxygen atoms (i.e., [O III], having two electrons stripped off the atom by short wavelength starlight).
		M27 has a dimesions of 5.2 x 7.9 'arc in this image.

	M27
		One of the most spectacular planetary nebulas in the sky, M27, or the "Dumbbell Nebula," is quite often one of a beginning astronomer's first targets.
		Like its nearby cousin, M57, the "Ring Nebula," M27 was formed by gases that have slowly shed from its dying central star.
		But unlike the ring shape that characterizes M57, M27 takes on an oval, helical shape.

		Please pardon the vertical saturation streaks from bright stars in the field; these become almost impossible to avoid in rich Milky Way fields (and at long exposures, anywhere in the sky) with large-format CCDs.
		M27 is bright enough to be a distinct fuzzy spot through binoculars under dark skies.

		Actually, as for almost all planetary nebulae, most of the visible light is even emitted in one spectral line only, in the green light at 5007 Angstrom (see our planetary nebula description) !
		This variable can be found in some of our images, namely those of Jack Newton, Peter Sütterlin and (faintly) David Malin's INT photo, as well as one of the images by John Sefick.

		I spent some time observing M27 with medium to high magnification tonight.

		An aging star's last hurrah is creating a flurry of glowing knots of gas that appear to be streaking through space in this close-up image of the Dumbbell Nebula, taken with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope.
		The Dumbbell, a nearby planetary nebula residing more than 1,200 light-years away, is the result of an old star that has shed its outer layers in a glowing display of color.
		The nebula, also known as Messier 27 (M27), was the first planetary nebula ever discovered.

	M27 in Ha/OIII
		Messier 27, also known as the Dumbbell Nebula, was the 27th object categorized by Messier during his search for objects that could be confused for comets.
		M27 is a planetary nebula, which represents the end stage of stars about the same size as our Sun (in contrast, stars much larger than our Sun typically undergo a supernova explosion).
		Such stars experience a phase of continued helium burning on their surface, long after the fuel in their core has been exhausted.
