Description

This Astrobin Debut Object  is a reflection nebula located 1200 light years away in the constellation of Orion at a declination of +13 degrees.  It spans 3.4 arc-minutes in our apparent view.  This corresponds to a width of 1.2 light years.

The source star is HD 34033, a magnitude 8.7 star.  I think it is interesting that the star appears orange but the nebula is a whitish-blue color.
