Iris Nebula
The Iris Nebula (also known as NGC 7023 and Caldwell 4) is a bright reflection nebula in the constellation Cepheus. The designation NGC 7023 refers to the open cluster within the larger reflection nebula designated LBN 487.

The nebula, which shines at magnitude +6.8, is illuminated by a magnitude +7.4 star designated HD 200775. It is located near the Mira-type variable star T Cephei, and near the bright magnitude +3.23 variable star Beta Cephei (Alfirk). It lies 1,300 light-years away and is six light-years across.

T Cephei
T Cephei is a Mira variable star in the constellation Cepheus. Located approximately 600 light-years (180 parsecs) distant, it varies between magnitudes 5.2 and 11.3 over a period of around 388 days. When it is near its maximum brightness, it is faintly visible to the naked eye under good observing conditions.

Vitold Ceraski announced his discovery that the star is a variable star, in 1879. It appeared with its variable star designation, T Cephei, in Annie Jump Cannon's 1907 publication Second catalogue of variable stars. T Cephei is a red giant of spectral type M6-9e with an effective temperature 2,400 K, a radius of 329 R☉, a mass of 0.55 M☉, and a luminosity of 5,700 L☉. If it were in the place of the Sun, its photosphere would at least engulf the orbit of Mars. This star is believed to be in a late stage of its life, the asymptotic giant branch phase, blowing off its own atmosphere to form a white dwarf in a distant future.
Alaunt
The Alaunt is an extinct type of dog which came in different forms, with the original possibly having existed in North Caucasus, Central Asia and Europe from ancient times.

This type of dog may have been developed by the Alans, and was renowned primarily for its quality as a large-game catch dog, and as a war dog and guard dog.

Catch dog
A catch dog is a specially trained dog that is used to catch large animals in hunting, working livestock, and baiting.

In hunting, catch dogs work alongside bay dogs to corner prey and alert their handler by howling or baying. Catch dogs are typically equipped with chest armor to protect against the boar's tusk and neck armor to prevent neck injuries.

As livestock dogs, catch dogs use their weight and teeth to immobilize live animals so that they can be captured, or literally hogtied, by the dog's handlers, who may be stockmen, hunters, butchers, or farmers.

Most Roman cities had at least one – if not many – such buildings, which were centers not only for bathing, but socializing and reading as well. Bathhouses were also provided for wealthy private villas, town houses, and forts. They were supplied with water from an adjacent river or stream, or within cities by aqueduct. The water would be heated by fire then channelled into the caldarium (hot bathing room). The design of baths is discussed by Vitruvius in De architectura (V.10).
