NGC2371/72 in Gemini

The Peanut planetary in Gemini is an interesting looking object in moderately sized scopes. During last Wednesday's observing session I was able to make out the central star of it for the first time. It is located midway between the two lobes, and is pretty hard to make out. However, since I can see it with a 12.5-inch, I'm sure some of you can do with less. Anyone taking the challenge?

Anyhow it is a good object, not requiring a filter. It is quite small, and a magnification giving an exit pupil of about 2mm is recommended.

I like this planetary very much and frequently look at it with the 40 inch Dob. I think it is enhanced by the OIII filter. I have not taken the challenge to try it with a smaller scope than your 12.5 inch. I think it is a planetary with similarity to the ring nebula with respect to the perspective we have on it from our vantage point.
