PIX4623906
Image title
Planetary nebula Shapley 1 in the Rule - The planetary nebula Shapley 1 - This planetary nebula is located about 1000 years ago - light. Image obtained from the 3.9m telescope of Siding Spring This is an unusual annular planetary nebula in Norma. The nebula itself appears quite small at a little over an arc minute in diameter, while its central star is a magnitude 14 white dwarf. This object is unusual because those planetaries that are not bipolar are more or less spherical shells of material thrown off by the central star as it undergoes an internal rearrangement. We often see them as thick annuli because we look through a greater thickness at the edge of the shell. However, Shapley 1 seems to be a true torus, a doughnut - shaped ring of material that we happen to see face - on around the central star. Sp - 1 is about 1000 light years distant
