M42 Orion Nebula (FredvomJupiter)

M42 Orion Nebula

English:

Regarding the photograph:

The last time I used my equipment was 01/12/13, according to my mount. After more than one year I finally had time, I was in mood and the weather was good. To my surprise everything worked quit well.

Regarding the object:

First european astronomers documented the Orion Nebula in 1610.

Charles Messier observed the nebula on March 4th 1769 his first time.

The Orion Nebula is just a small part of the big nebula komplex in the constellation of Orion; Horshead Nebula and Bernad´s Loops belong to this complex as well.

The Orion Nebula is a stellar nursery. The hydrogen cloud is excited by the new born stars, which ionize the cloud. HII-regions emerge.

Zur Aufnahme:

Das letzte mal war ich laut Montierung am 12.01.13 draußen. Nach über einem Jahr hatte ich nun endlich mal Zeit, Lust und gutes Wetter. Zu meiner Überraschung hat auch alles ganz gut und flüssig funktioniert.

Zum Objekt:

Europäische Astronomen dokumentiert den Orionnebel erstmals 1610.

Charles Messier beobachtet ihn das erste mal am 4. März 1769.

Der Orionnebel ist nur ein kleiner Teil des großen Nebelkomplexes im Sternbild Orion, zu dem auch der Pferdekopfnebel und Bernad´s Loops gehören.

Der Orionnebel ist Sternenstehungsgebiet. Die Wolke wird durch die neu entstandenen Sterne, wie z.B. die Trapezsterne, zum Leuchten angeregt. Sie ionisieren Wasserstoff, so entstehen HII-Regionen.

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.
