Abstract
A faint nebula, between the Rosette and NGC 2264, appears to be a supernova remnant. This was photographed with long exposures through narrow filters centred on the bright nebular emission lines. Interferograms were also taken. These revealed extensive regions emitting broad lines, and showed that the nebula did not have the large expansion velocity that was expected.
