NASA. This celestial cloudscape captures the colorful region - Lot 252
NASA. This celestial cloudscape captures the colorful region of the Orion Nebula surrounding the Herbig-Haro object HH 505. Herbig-Haro objects are luminous regions surrounding nascent stars that form when stellar winds or jets of gas shoot out from these nascent stars, creating shock waves that collide with nearby gas and dust at high speeds. The outflows are visible as gracefully curved structures at the top and bottom of this image. Their interaction with the large-scale flow of gas and dust from the nebula's core deforms them into sinuous curves. The Orion Nebula is a dynamic region of gas and dust where thousands of stars form. It is the closest region of massive star formation to the Earth, making it one of the most scrutinized areas of the night sky, and often a target for the Hubble Space Telescope.vintage chromogenic print.
