Orion Nebula (Hubble & Spitzer Telescopes) Postcard

Photograph of the Orion Nebula This image shows stars, dust and gas inside the Orion Nebula, 1500 light years from Earth. This is a composite photo, based on ultraviolet and visible light images from the Hubble Space Telescope, and infrared views from the Spitzer Space Telescope. The result shows a swirling mass of gas and dust in shades of orange, green, blue and purple, spotted with bright stars. (The colours have been enhanced slightly here.)
