Wolf–Rayet nebula - Wikipedia
A Wolf-Rayet nebula is a type of nebula created from stellar winds expelled by Wolf-Rayet stars. Wolf-Rayet stars are very hot, highly luminous, and rapidly evolving massive stars that are fusing helium or heavier elements in their cores.
WR 134 - Wikipedia
WR 134 is a variable Wolf-Rayet star located around 6,000 light years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus, surrounded by a faint bubble nebula blown by the intense radiation and fast wind from the star. It is five times the radius of the sun, but due to a temperature over 63,000 K it is 400,000 times as luminous as the Sun.
NGC 2359 - Wikipedia
NGC 2359 (also known as Thor's Helmet) is an emission nebula [3] in the constellation Canis Major. The nebula is approximately 3,670 parsecs (11.96 thousand light years) away and 30 light-years in size. The central star is the Wolf-Rayet star WR7, an extremely hot star thought to be in a brief pre-supernova stage of evolution.

Wolf-Rayet 134 (WR 134) is a variable Wolf-Rayet star located around 6,000 light years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus, surrounded by a faint bubble nebula blown by the intense radiation and fast wind from the star.
WR 134, A Ring Nebula in Cygnus (Mark Wetzel) - AstroBin
WR 134 is a variable Wolf-Rayet star located around 6,000 light years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus, surrounded by a faint bubble nebula blown by the intense radiation and fast wind from the star.
APOD: 2021 June 17 - NGC 6888: The Crescent Nebula
Visible within the nebula, NGC 6888's central star is classified as a Wolf-Rayet star (WR 136). The star is shedding its outer envelope in a strong stellar wind, ejecting the equivalent of the Sun's mass every 10,000 years. The nebula's complex structures are likely the result of this strong wind interacting with material ejected in an earlier ...
NGC 2359, Nebula, aka Thor's Helmet - Kopernik Observatory
2010年3月23日 · NGC 2359, A bright nebula surrounding a Wolf-Rayet Star: This ring-shaped nebulosity results from the interaction between the stellar wind of a central Wolf-Rayet star and the interstellar matter. The wind compresses the interstellar matter and produces a …
APOD: 2023 May 18 - WR 134 Ring Nebula - Astronomy Picture of the Day
Shedding their outer envelopes in powerful stellar winds, massive Wolf-Rayet stars have burned through their nuclear fuel at a prodigious rate and end this final phase of massive star evolution in a spectacular supernova explosion.
RCW-58 - Hanson Astronomy Photos
RCW58, an E type nebula, is a Wolf Rayet Bubble formed by the ejecta from WR 40, the central star in the image. These three dimensional bubbles appear as a ring in two dimensions, as seen in this image and represent the stellar ejecta contained in a wind blown bubble.
APOD: 2018 July 26 - Barnard 228: The Dark Wolf Nebula in Lupus
Barnard 228: The Dark Wolf Nebula in Lupus Image Credit & Copyright: Gabriel Rodrigues Santos. Explanation: These dark markings on the sky can just be found in silhouette against a rich, luminous background of stars. Seen toward the southern constellation of Lupus the Wolf, the dusty, obscuring clouds are part of the Lupus Molecular Cloud some ...
