“MWC 922: The Red Square Nebula” is copyrighted by Peter Tuthill (Sydney U.) and James Lloyd (Cornell). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Red Square Nebula, MWC 922, surrounds a hot star system, and its square shape puzzles astronomers. This image combines infrared data from the Hale Telescope and the Keck-2 Telescope. One leading idea is that the central star or stars expelled cones of gas during a late stage of development, which then formed these striking square patterns.
