COSMIC MESSAGE

The Orion Nebula is a star-forming region below Orion's belt. The Trapezium cluster, with its four bright stars, marks the center of this active area. Within the nebula, supernova explosions and close stellar interactions have created rogue planets and fast-moving stars. This region is a stellar nursery, constantly evolving.
