Scientific paper

Eta Carinae is an extremely massive and highly evolved member of the Carinae starburst region. It has undergone numerous eruptions over the past millennium. In 1841, a giant eruption ejected several solar masses or more of material. Most of this material is currently in the dusty nebula denoted as the “Homunculus”. In an initial article (The Messenger No. 101, September 2000, p. 24), we presented results on the 3-dimensional structure and dynamics of the nebula. In addition to the smoothly distributed light from the nebula, there are sharp spikes or “jets” extending far beyond the Homunculus and very small condensations or “bullets”.
