HD 65750

HD 65750, also known as V341 Carinae is a bright red giant star in the constellation Carina. It is surrounded by a prominent reflection nebula,[10][9] known as IC 2220, nicknamed the Toby Jug Nebula.

Characteristics

HD 65750 is located about 900 light years away, and has an apparent magnitude that varies between 6.2 and 7.1 and a metallicity just 40% of the Sun. It is part of the Diamond Cluster moving group.

The star has a radial velocity of 20 km/s.[11]

Nebulae

The nebulae is a mystery as the variations in nebulae brightness appear to be unrelated to the host star.[12] One theory is that rather than being an accreting protoplanetary disk the star may be an evolved star that is losing material.[13][14]
