- Description:
- CTB1/Abell 85 was discovered in 1955 by George Abell on the Palomar survey plates, thinking it was a planetary nebula based on its shape. Later scientists found out that it is a supernova remnant based on its radio signal. Thus, CTB1 is probably the proper designation for this object, even though Abell was actually the discoverer.
