“M42: The Great Orion Nebula” is copyrighted by Francesco Battistella. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Orion Nebula is a nearby stellar nursery where glowing gas surrounds hot, young stars. Many of the filamentary structures in this image are shock waves, where fast-moving material encounters slow-moving gas. The nebula spans about 40 light-years and is 1,500 light-years away.
