You'll find it more impressive when you can look at it when it's not close to the Sun. Moreover, if you're not too far north, you would definitely find NGC-3132, also known as the Eight Burst Nebula which is on the border between Vela and Antlia. It's very bright and has a odd structure to say the least, and well worth looking for in the coming winter and spring.
