Hidden Orion from Webb
The Webb Space Telescope reveals hidden stars within the Great Nebula in Orion, a busy region of young stars, hot gas, and dark dust. While appearing as a fuzzy patch to the naked eye in visible light, Webb's infrared vision penetrates the obscuring dust. This image, a representative-color composite, shows the intricate details of star formation within the nebula.
