Comet SOHO and Nebulae in Orion

NASA APOD · M. Horn
COSMIC MESSAGE

This view of Comet SOHO was captured in the night sky above Wandibindle, Australia. The comet moved against the background of the nebula-rich constellation Orion. The picture shows SOHO's bright head and a long tail extending past the glowing gas clouds and dark dust lanes of the Flame and Horsehead nebulae. Alnitak, a bright star, is visible above and to the right of the comet's coma.
