The Fall of the Youngest Planetary Nebula, Hen3-1357 [SSA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2009.01701


The Stingray Nebula, aka Hen3-1357, went undetected until 1990 when bright nebular lines and radio emission were unexpectedly discovered. We report changes in shape and rapid and secular decreases in its nebular emission-line fluxes based on well calibrated images obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1996, 2000, and 2016. Hen3-1357 is now a “recombination nebula”.
