For the Eastern European satellite television provider named Digi TV , see Digi TV . Image Nebula Electronics logo.png right Nebula Electronics Ltd were a small UK company specialising in digital terrestrial cards for Windows PCs. The brand name for their hardware is DigiTV. Many users recommended the DigiTV cards due to their easy to use software, which was very similar to set top boxes. The installation routine is also very simple, especially for the universal serial bus USB models, which do not require opening up the PC. Nebula Electronics operated entirely from the United Kingdom, including production and direct sales but they also had distributors in Australia, Finland, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, and Sweden. They were renowned for offering the majority of features for the Freeview UK Freeview service including Audio description and MHEG 5 , something that contemporary competing products did not.

It is located in the constellation Cepheus constellation Cepheus . Visually it is a difficult object, but with adequate exposure, makes a striking image. The nebula gets its name from the dark lane at the eastern side abutting the brightest curve of emission nebulosity which gives the appearance of a deep cave when seen through a telescope visually.

The two stars that produced the Necklace Nebula are in a relatively small orbit about each other. They have a period of 1.2 days and a separation on the order of 5 times the radius of the Sun. About 10,000 years ago one of the aging stars ballooned to the point where it engulfed its companion star. The smaller star continued orbiting inside its larger companion, increasing the giant s rotation rate. The bloated companion star spun so fast that a large part of its gaseous envelope expanded into space. Due to centrifugal force , most of the gas escaped along the star s equator , producing a ring. The embedded bright knots are dense gas clumps in the ring. ref name NASANN http www.nasa.gov mission pages hubble science necklace nebula.html Hubble Offers a Dazzling Necklace , NASA press release dated August 11, 2011.This article incorporates public domain text from this US government website. ref References reflist External links http hubblesite.org newscenter archive releases 2011 24 fastfacts Technical data on Necklace Nebula & Hubble image Category Planetary nebulae Category Sagitta ... more details
