Sh 2-113 (Sharpless 113) also known as the Flying Dragon Nebula or LBN 333, is a small planetary nebula that resembles a supernova remnant (SNR) but with no evidence to support it being an SNR. Sh 2-113 is located in the northern hemisphere constellation of Cygnus south of the star Deneb.[1] Nearby are other planetary nebulae named K 2-81, Sh 2-114, Kn 26 and LBN 346.[2]
