Cat’s Eye Nebula
The Cat's Eye Nebula, also known as NGC 6543, is one of the most well-known planetary nebulae located in the constellation Draco.
It is approximately 3,000 light-years away from Earth and is notable for its intricate structure and vibrant colors.
The Cat's Eye Nebula is formed from the outer layers of a dying star that has shed its material during the late stages of its evolution.
The central star, which is a hot white dwarf, is responsible for the intense ultraviolet radiation that ionizes the surrounding gas, causing it to glow.
One of the most striking features of the Cat's Eye Nebula is its "eyes," which are formed by the concentric shells of gas and dust that create a visually captivating appearance.

Anyone out there have any idea what sort of “wind” speeds we are looking at?
