Need a “pink” me up?
Gaze at this section of the Orion Nebula as observed by Hubble. This piece is just one part of a large mosaic of the nebula that was released in 2006, which revealed never-before-seen details: https://bit.ly/4bCC3rG

1. A portion of the Orion Nebula. A young star-forming region is filled with wispy pink layers of gas and dust. The pink wisps vary in shade, with dark pink regions toward the upper left and lower right, and vibrant pink tones in the lower left. Small points of light are sprinkled across the field. A cluster of four bright, large stars is in the center surrounded by light pink material. In the lower left are two large, bright points with four-pointed diffraction spikes.
