Orion Nebula

After having a very wet summer I managed to get more data of the Orion Nebula, after having hardware issues.




The Orion nebula is a is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way, in the constellation of Orion. It is one of the brightest nebulae, and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky. It is about 1,344 light-years away, and is the closest region of massive star formation to Earth. The M42 nebula is estimated to be 24 light years across.
