... December 7, 1999 . The Cat's Paw Nebula . ... Explanation: As soon as we find out whose cat did this . ... No cat, though, could have created the vast Cat's Paw Nebula visible in Scorpius . The Cat's Paw Nebula is the glowing red nebula near the top of the above picture -- the lower nebula is NGC 6357 . At 5500 light years distant, Cat's Paw is an emission nebula with a red color that originates from an abundance of ionized hydrogen atoms. ... About APOD > . ... NASA Technical Rep.: ...
... April 9, 1999 . WR 104: Pinwheel Star . ... Explanation: Like a cosmic lawn sprinkler, dust streaming from a rotating star system creates a pinwheel pattern in this false color infrared image . Astronomers discovered the surprising star dust scenario using a sophisticated interferometer and the 10 meter Keck I telescope to observe the bright Wolf-Rayet star WR 104. ... The problem is, their starlight would also be so intense that any dust flakes should be destroyed! ... About APOD > . ...

... The distance scales of the objects are matched both by comparing the first derivatives of the angular velocity determined separately from radial velocities and proper motions and by the statistical-parallax method. ... Good agreement between the inferred 0 and our calculations based on space velocities suggests that the Lindblad relation holds throughout the entire sample volume. ... Brandt and Blitz (1993) published the distances and radial velocities for a total of 206 H II-regions. ... Astron. ...
