The Kleinmann-Low Nebula
The Kleinmann-Low Nebula is the most active part of the Orion Nebular Cloud Complex. It hosts a cluster of young and forming stars, embedded within a dusty molecular cloud. While visible light is blocked by the dust, infrared images like this one reveal the region's intense activity, with hot stellar winds creating finger-like intrusions in the surrounding gas.
