The Flame Nebula in Orion48 viewsThe flame nebula (NGC2024) is a glowing cloud of hydrogen gas where star formation is ongoing at 900-1500 light years away in the constellation Orion. Also visible is the horsehead nebula (IC434), both of which are difficult objects to observe due to their low surface brightness, and the proximity of one of Orion's eastern most belt star Alnitak.

Horsehead Nebula B33 - Close Up37 viewsThe Horsehead Nebula (also known as Barnard 33 in bright nebula IC 434) is a dark nebula in the constellation Orion. The nebula is located just below Alnitak, the star furthest left on Orion's Belt. The darkness of the Horsehead is caused mostly by thick dust, although the lower part of the Horsehead's neck casts a shadow to the left. Streams of gas leaving the nebula are funneled by a strong magnetic field.
