Helix Nebula Movie  

This is a NASA animation on the formation of NGC 7293, The Helix Nebula in the constellation Aquarius.

It is an MPEG movie, and the file size is about 1.19 Megabytes and the duration is about 22 seconds. If your system is capable of playing MPEG's, I certainly recommend viewing the movie. It is a great portrayal of how this nebula came into being. Once it is loaded, press the Play arrow to begin.
