IC 4406: A Seemingly Square Nebula

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

IC 4406 appears to be a square nebula, but it is likely a hollow cylinder. Its square shape is a result of our viewing angle from the side. If we could view it from the top, it would probably look similar to the Ring Nebula. This composite image was created by combining data from the Hubble Space Telescope.
