NASA / ESA’s Hubble Space Telescope captures a colorful image of the Orion Nebula located 1,500 light-years from Earth. What immediately stands out are the brilliant clouds of orange, purple, pink, gray-green and yellow shine against a black, star-speckled background.
The colors are divided into two connected sections: a smaller, roughly crescent-like piece in the upper left corner, and a larger fan-shaped portion that extends from the bottom of the crescent to the bottom lower right. We can also observe several stars shining throughout and around the nebula.
