Scientific paper

Four CCD exposures of Hubble's Variable Nebula were taken with the RIT Kodak KF-4200 array using the 0.6m Hawaii telescope at Mauna Kea. The field of view was 5' x 7' of arc with a resolution of 0.3" per pixel. The effective wavelengths were v 5300A, r 6200A, i 8000A and ii 9000A. Preliminary image processing has been done on Macintosh IIfxs and LCs using NIH Image1.44b20 and has revealed considerable detail in the dust cloud, but no obvious obscuration features as seen at past epochs. Final image processing is continuing on Sun workstations using IRAF and SAO Image. Differences of structure between the wavelength bands and comparisons between images at other epochs, CO maps, and polarimetry will be discussed.
