Characteristics of Orion Nebula

The Orion Nebula has three bright stars arranged neatly and three small stars arranged obliquely. Without a telescope, you can see that one of the three small stars is faintly glowing red. It is not a star, but the Orion nebula.

It is a luminous gas cloud in Orion, which can be directly observed in the middle of Orion sword. The nebula is connected with a star-forming region and illuminated by the young stars it contains, which is very spectacular in astronomical photos. The Orion Nebula is also one of the indicators to identify Orion.

The square star in the center of the nebula is one of the targets for observing and studying the birth of stars, and photographing the details of the nearby nebula is also the object to test astrophotography, telescope resolution and post-processing kung fu.

Orion Nebula is an X-ray source, which contains some Herbig arrow objects, a pulse source and some T-shaped Taurus stars. Because it is close to the earth, the Orion Nebula is one of the most thoroughly studied celestial bodies.
