Explanation:
The
Orion
Nebula is visible to the unaided eye as a fuzzy patch near the
famous belt of three stars in the
constellation Orion. The above picture
captures a part of the
Orion Nebula that primarily reflects light from
bright Orion stars. This
reflection nebula
appears blue because the blue light from the neighboring stars scatters
more efficiently from nebula gas than does red light. The dark lanes are
composed of mostly
interstellar dust
- fine needle-shaped carbon grains.
