=== Deep-sky objects === Due to its small size and location away from the plane of the [[Milky Way]], Caelum is rather devoid of deep-sky objects, and contains no [[Messier object]]s. The only [[deep-sky object]] in Caelum to receive much attention is [[HE0450-2958]], an unusual [[Seyfert galaxy]]. Originally, the jet's host galaxy proved elusive to find, and this jet appeared to be emanating from nothing.<ref name="Magain">{{Cite journal | last1 = Magain | first1 = P. | last2 = Letawe | first2 = G.
