Abell 70 is a planetary nebula located 13,500-17,500 light years away in the constellation of Aquila. It is approaching the earth at 79 kilometers per second and expanding 38 kilometers per second. There is a galaxy named PMN J2033-0656 behind Abell 70, giving it a "diamond ring" effect.[1]

Composition

The faint OIII ring structure can be seen through a telescope.[2] The central star of Abell 70 is a binary star system consisting of a hot white dwarf and a G-type subgiant star.[3] The subgiant star is a barium star[1] that rotates rapidly (with a period of about 2 days) and is variable due to starspots.[3]
