A delicat nebula in Orion

A Delicate Nebula in Orion: NGC 1788.Rather unimagined, overshadowed by the many stars of Orion, the nebula by reflection of Orion seemed to us to be an interesting subject.Although this ghostly cloud is rather isolated from orion's bright stars, their powerful winds and light have a strong impact on the nebula, forging its shape and making it a home for a multitude of nascent suns. The dark nebulae Lynds 1616 & to the left of the nebula bring a "phantasmagorical" aspect to the cliché.NGC 1788 is an unusually reflective nebula (bluish white to the right of the image) surrounded by a bright red ring of hydrogen gas. The stars inside the nebula are only about a million years old, which is very young compared to most stars. The incandescent hydrogen gas ring is powered by nearby hot, massive stars that are not necessarily visible in the image.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
