In the Center of the Trapezium
			
		
		
		
			Start with the constellation of Orion.  Below 
Orion's 
belt is a fuzzy area known as the 
Great Nebula of Orion or M42.  
In this nebula is a bright star cluster known as the 
Trapezium, shown above.  New stellar systems are forming there in 
gigantic globs of gas and dust known as 
Proplyds.  
Looking closely at the above picture also reveals that 
gas and dust surrounding some of the dimmer stars 
appears to form structures that point away from the brighter stars.  The 
above false color image 
was made by combining several exposures from the 
Hubble Space Telescope.
