What is hatching in the egg?

We report VLA detections at 1.3, 2, and 3.6 cm of the Egg Nebula, RAFGL 268 8. We resolve the source and find an inner 9 " diameter core that is produc ed by similar to 0.01 M. of dust. It seems that the Egg Nebula experienced a major mass ejection, losing similar to 1 M. during the past less than or equal to 1200 yr. The centimeter-wavelength emission is extended at a posit ion angle of 53 degrees, while the famous jets and lobes in the Egg Nebula Lie along a position angle of 15 degrees. The multiple symmetries in the Eg g Nebula may occur because the rotation axis of the mass-losing star is not perpendicular to the orbital plane of the putative close binary. Between 3 .6 cm and 350 mu m, the dust opacity appears to vary as nu(0.6), which can be explained if there are some grains with sizes at least as large as 0.5 c m.
