===Envelope===
 
The envelope of gas surrounding the core is significantly larger than the core, with an apparent [[diameter]] of 386 arcseconds (337 ly) or 16 times the size of the core.<ref name=constellation-guide/> The envelope is significantly fainter than the core and only visible through large telescopes. This extended halo is believed to have a temperature of the order of 15,000 k.<ref name=constellation-guide/> The halo has a mass of 0.26-0.92 [[solar mass]]es.<ref name=constellation-guide/>
