 In the 1960s, Beverly Lynds studied the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS) plates and made a list of things she thought were bright or dark nebulae. These of course were subjective judgements, but they are often pretty, and often forming stars. Many Lynds clouds are famous star forming regions. There are already lots of observations of Lynds clouds in the WISE (and for that matter, Spitzer) archive. We need to find something that is interesting, likely to at least make a pretty picture, preferably actually result in the discovery of some new baby stars... AND not such a "popular" region that someone else is likely to scoop us during the year we are working on it! We picked LDN 1548, but if we somehow blow through that one really fast, we can pick another one to do as well.
