    The mean expansion velocity of the nebula seems to be slow at 20 km/s at the outer layer, [7] while it also reaches a maximum expansion velocity of 60 km/s relative to its central star. [8] Its central star has a magnitude of around 14m [7] and a temperature of around 47,000--59 000 K. [9] The most characteristic feature of IC 4997 is its ...

    The expansion rate of different portions of the nebula varies from 10 km/s to at least 30 km/s, leading to age estimates of 78,500 - 236,000 years. The nebula has been studied at radio and x-ray wavelengths, but it is still unclear whether it was produced at the class O main sequence stage of development, as a red supergiant , luminous blue ...
