The Coffee Bean Nebula (SFO 75, RCW 98 or Gum 49, take your pick<G>) is a ring nebula with a central Wolf Rayert star energizing star formation in the nebula in a manner similar to NGC 6164/5. Thought you might have an interest in W-R stars and ring nebulae<G>. Other examples would include RCW 52 & RCW 58, as well as many others. Thanks for looking.
