Before discovering NGC 1514 (also known as the Crystal Ball Nebula) in 1790, William Herschel believed that all nebulae were star clusters that were simply too distant to be resolved with 18th Century telescopes. Herschel was so captivated by NGC 1514's round shape and the bright blue object at its center that he posited the nebula was a single star 'surrounded with a faintly luminous atmosphere' -- opening the door to our current understanding of interstellar gas clouds.
Later astronomers theorized that NGC 1514 might, in fact, be a pair of stars locked in a short orbital period, but FSD-enabled stellar surveys have since validated Herschel's original single-star theory. The nebula contains no planetary bodies and there is a tourist beacon ('Little Blue') approximately 800 light seconds away from the main star.
