High angular resolution images of the bipolar nebula S106 at 60 and 100 mu m are presented. Traditionally, this source has been modeled as a pre-main-sequence object at the center of an extended dust torus and an even larger gas disk. According to recent millimeter observations, however, these disks are actually made up of a number of distinct sources. Our observations are the first to sample the nebula at these wavelengths with the resolution required to break the dust disk into discrete sources, and support this newer model. In particular, the bright submillimeter clump named S106 FIR is clearly detected at 60 mu m, better constraining its spectral energy distribution and giving us more insight into its nature.
