The MASH Catalog of Planetary Nebulae 



The Macquarie/AAO/Strasbourg Hα  Planetary Galactic Catalog
(MASH) contains 905 true, likely and possible new galactic planetary
nebulae discovered in the 
AAO/UKST Hα survey
of the Southern galactic plane. The MASH catalog represents the 
result of a 7-year 
programme of identification and confirmatory spectroscopy.
A key strength is that
the entire sample has been derived from the same, uniform observational
data. The 60% increase
in known Galactic planetary nebulae represents the largest ever
incremental sample of
such discoveries and offers many new opportunities for research.
