"Pyramid structure" in space .. ?

Hello there everybody

I found this article today while doing my daily cruise through the net. Don't see it posted anywhere yet, so here it is for those that might be interested.
Link to article .

For the more lazy of You that can't be bothered to click and watch the short video let me quote the first paragraph of the article (out of two )

Weirdness-finder Planetkrejci has posted a new video of what he calls a "pyramid" or "structure" in space, which he found on WikiSky. What do you think it is?

To me it looks more like a nebula of some sort, but never the less it looks quiet cool .

Well not much more to say I guess so that would be it for this thread from my side

Ha, Pyramid shaped you say?

Well I was just quoting the article so don't shoot the messenger Besides, it kind of does look pyramidal in shape, at least to me

Looks more like a face to me.....with blue hair

I see the pyramid structure, actually two or three of them.

How close is this to earth? Maybe just a nebula formation that happens to resemble a pyramid? Need a little perspective on that.

A quick check with a more reliable tool than Google Earth/Sky, Stellarium, for example, with the given coordinates ("04h27m34.95s 16.38'19.40""), show that there is ...... nothing:



Exact coordinates are at the mouse cursor's position.

A general view of this sky area:



So it's not any kind of astronomical object, but rather, like always with Google Earth/Sky/Mars/Street View... some sort of glitch:















And so on....
