Scientific paper

IUE observations of the ultraviolet emission lines and continuum from the wind-driven poly-polar nebula NGC 6302 have been combined with those obtained of the visible emission lines to investigate the physical parameters of the ionized gas. Several relationships consolidate the view that this nebula is predominantly ionized radiatively by a very hot central star. However, the 'poly-polar' appearance and complex, high velocity flows of ionized material from the nebular core strongly suggest the presence of an energetic stellar wind from the central, but obscured star.
