A 2010 study focused on M1-67, measuring its expansion rate by using Hubble Space Telescope photographs taken 11 years apart.

[5][6] An infrared study of the nebula showed that it consists of mildly processed material with number ratios of N/O = 1.0 ± 0.5 and C/O = 0.46 ± 0.27.

[8] Studying the dynamics of the nebula has suggested that it has interacted with the surrounding ISM, causing a bow shock which travels at a high velocity of about 180 km/s.

[9] The wind collided with the bow shock shortly after the outburst, oriented along its main axis, as evidenced by the lack of emission found within the radial velocities in the centre of the nebula as seen from telescopes on Earth.

An alternative model suggest that WR 124 is a bipolar nebula with its axis in pointing northwest, surrounded by an equatorial torus, as well as jets expanding in the eastern direction.
