fuzzy red objects?

These things are driving me crazy! How are you supposed to differentiate between a simple cloud of gas that shows up as red, a red star showing through some gas, and a fuzzy red object? Or are they all fuzzy red objects? Some of these images have large clouds of red gas. Are they fuzzy red objects as well? These as well as green knots drive me crazy. Throw in the dark nebula's and you have receipt for a headache.
The green bubbles are snap by comparison.Posted

The green bubbles are snap by comparison.I'm sorry that you're frustrated. The red fuzzies are the hardest to define. I would suggest marking any red fuzzy object that you think looks intersting. Once you've used the site for a while, you get a feel for what is unusual and not for these objects. This should help you to not get bogged down in the details. Everyone marks the red fuzzies differently, but the aggregate is giving us a fairly comprehensive view of their distributions throughout the galaxy.

suelaine here. I have been a collection of, what I have been calling fuzzy red objects. They resemble a small red bulls eyes with a white centre. The collection that I have called "red fuzzies and bubbles" shows the red objects as they develop into, or are closely associated with green bubbles. I have a lot of these images that seem to show various stages of development. By the way, what are the bright red circles with white bulls eyes in them?
Thanks, Sue Morris ( suelaine)ttfnrob

I wish they knew more about fuzzy red objects.
Don't they have a better name for them?Posted
