The Horsehead Nebula in Infrared from Hubble
Fittingly named the Horsehead Nebula, it is embedded in the vast and complex Orion Nebula (M42). A potentially rewarding but difficult object to view personally with a small telescope, the above gorgeously detailed image was taken in 2013 in infrared light by the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope in honor of the 23rd anniversary of Hubble's launch. The dark molecular cloud, roughly 1,500 light years distant, is cataloged as Barnard 33 and is seen above primarily because it is backlit by the nearby massive star Sigma Orionis .

Question of the day : How far is the Moon from planet Earth?
Have you guys watched the new Alien Worlds docuseries on Netflix?
I am speechless.
A dazzling capture of vivid space-scape by Casey Good. It spans across nebula rich star fields along the plane of our Milky Way. To the north lies the royal northern constellation Cepheus. To the left of centre is (sh) 155 — the Cave Nebula. At VDB 155 at lower right are the Dusty blue reflection nebulae.
