"THE GREAT ORION NEBULA"
- Deepsky 750mm LRGB Rework
- Constellation Orionis
The Orion Nebula (M422 or NGC 1976) is an emission nebula in the constellation of Orion. Due to the high apparent brightness of its center above the 4th magnitude, the nebula is clearly visible to the naked eye as part of Orion's Sword south of the three stars of Orion's Belt. Overall, it has an angular extension of about one degree.
The Orion Nebula is a subregion of the interstellar molecular cloud OMC-1 in the Orion molecular cloud complex. It consists mainly of hydrogen. Stars form in the nebula, whose ionizing radiation makes the nebula shine in the visible range. It is therefore also classified as an H-II area. At a distance of about 1350 light-years, it is one of the most active star-forming regions in the galactic neighborhood, which is why it is a preferred study object for studying star formation. It is expected to evolve into a Pleiades-like open star cluster.
The main ionization source of the Orion Nebula is the star θ¹ Orionis C1, which is also one of the most luminous stars known with more than 200,000 times the luminosity of the Sun. However, the immediately adjacent and similarly configured De Mairan's Nebula has a different ionizing source and is therefore not part of the Orion Nebula.

Even though my last Orion pictures were mostly well received, there was some (good) criticism here and there that I tried to heed ^^ So, one more time, the big Orion Nebula with the Running Man Nebula above it.
A little less purple, a little brighter, paid a little more attention to the stars and most importantly, I took care not to break the extremely bright core when editing :-)

Final workout of the large Orion Nebula in LRGB - a rework incorporating my current workflow, which I didn't use like this back then. This includes Generic Hyperbolic Strech, Blur X Terminator, Noise X Terminator, SPCC and this time, manually blended HDR. This is one of my last exposures, with the Skywatcher 150/750PDS, which has now been replaced by a Celestron SCEHD11.
The Orion Nebula(M42 or NGC 1976) is an emission nebula in the constellation Orion. Due to the large apparent brightness of its center above 4th magnitude, the nebula is easily visible to the naked eye star-like as part of Orion's sword south of the three stars of Orion's belt. Overall it has an angular extent of about one degree.
The Orion Nebula is a part of the interstellar molecular cloud OMC-1 in the Orion molecular cloud complex. It consists mainly of hydrogen. Stars are formed in the nebula and their ionizing radiation makes the nebula glow in the visible range. Therefore it is also classified as H-II region. At a distance of about 1350 light-years, it is one of the most active star-forming regions in the Galactic neighborhood, making it a favorite object for studying star formation. It is expected to evolve into an open star cluster similar to the Pleiades.
The main ionization source of the Orion Nebula is the star θ¹ Orionis C1, which is also one of the most luminous stars known, with more than 200,000 times the luminosity of the Sun. The nearby and similar De Mairans Nebula has a different ionizing source and is therefore not part of the Orion Nebula.
