The '''Little dumbbell nebula''' (M76, NGC 650/NGC 651) is a [[planetary nebula]] in the [[constellation]] of [[Perseus]].<ref name=messier-objects/> It has two designations in the [[New General Catalogue]] as it was originally thought to be two separate objects. The name arises from it great similarity to the [[Dumbbell nebula]], though it appears somewhat smaller in telescopes. One of the four planetary nebulae in Messier's catalogue, along with the [[Dumbbell nebula]], the [[Ring nebula]] and the [[Owl nebula]]. The nebula's small size on the night sky and its faintness makes it one of the most difficult [[Messier object]]s to observe. It is visible with binoculars, but is better seen with a telescope.
