... 2013 October 29 . Horsehead and Orion Nebulas . ... Explanation: The dark Horsehead Nebula and the glowing Orion Nebula are contrasting cosmic vistas. ... The familiar Horsehead nebula appears as a dark cloud, a small silhouette notched against the long red glow at the lower left. Alnitak is the easternmost star in Orion's belt and is seen as the brightest star to the left of the Horsehead . ... The magnificent emission region, the Orion Nebula (aka M42), lies at the upper right. ...

... Here, glowing gas surrounds hot young stars at the edge of an immense interstellar molecular cloud only 1500 light-years away. In the above deep image in assigned colors highlighted by emission in oxygen and hydrogen , wisps and sheets of dust and gas are particularly evident. The Great Nebula in Orion can be found with the unaided eye near the easily identifiable belt of three stars in the popular constellation Orion . ... Publications with keywords: Orion Nebula . ...

... GSAOI Home . ... Science . ... Deep imaging at J , H , and K is required to identify all stellar objects, brown dwarfs, and planetary mass objects in the central region of the Orion Nebula Cluster down to masses comparable to that of Jupiter. This is required to establish the initial mass function, i.e., the number of stars of each mass that have formed, in this region of intense massive star formation. ... The fields of the GSAOI detectors are shown as four green squares in each frame. ...

There is often dust associated with ionized regions. Compact HII regions usually have associated dust from a molecular cloud in which the massive star is being "born". ... For such stars the dust is not produced by the star, and a variety of dust features are observed. The planetary nebulae also usually have associated dust from the previous stage of evolution where they were either carbon stars or M-type giants. ... The feature near 11.5 microns in the IC 418 spectrum may be due to SiC dust. ...

... The Tarantula Nebula , also known as 30 Doradus and NGC 2070 , is a large region of ionized gas surrounding a collection of newly-forming stars at the eastern end of the stellar bar in the Large Magellanic Cloud (many similar regions are scattered through the LMC; see Kennicutt et al. ... The false-color image above is a log-scale display of a mosaic of several images taken with a CCD camera on the 0.6m Curtis Schmidt telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in December 1994. ...
