Nebula of the horse's head in Orion (IC 434) - The Horsehead is located in the constellation of Orion, slightly below the left - most star of the three that form the Hunter's belt. It is part of a vast molecular cloud of dust and gas that includes the Great Orion Nebula and extends throughout the entire constellation as well. It was first seen through photographs taken by E. Pickering in January 1900. The red coloration is the result of glowing hydrogen gas located primarily behind the formation. Here, we see the Horsehead as it appeared 1,500 years ago, due to distance and the time it takes light to travel. The bright complex of dust and gas below the Horsehead reflects the light given off by the bright star near it's center and is one of the brightest examples of reflection nebulae in the northern sky. The central star is surrounded with a thin shell of hydrogen that glows red by emitting it's own light in a rare example of a unique process called vibrational fluorescence. There are

Detail of the horse's head nebula by the VLT - Horsehead Nebula, which is situated in the Orion molecular cloud complex. Its official name is Barnard 33 and it is a dust protrusion in the southern region of the dense dust cloud Lynds 1630, on the edge of the HII region IC 434. The distance to the region is about 1400 light - years (430 pc). This beautiful colour image was produced from three images obtained with the multi - mode FORS2 instrument at the second VLT Unit Telescope (KUEYEN) on February 1, 2000. Three predominant colours are seen in the image: red from the hydrogen (H - alpha) emission from the HII region; brown for the foreground obscuring dust; and blue - green for scattered starlight. The blue - green regions of the Horsehead Nebula correspond to regions not shadowed from the light from the stars in the H II region to the top of the picture and scatter stellar radiation towards the observer; these are thus 'mountains' of dust
