Scientific paper

HCN observations of CRL 2688 (the 'Egg Nebula') indicate that the dense circumstellar envelope contains a large amount of angular momentum. It is proposed that the source of this angular momentum is a large and massive circumstellar disk left over from the period of star formation. It is suggested that the presence of such disks could be quite common, and attention is drawn to other observational areas which offer support for the longevity of such disks.
