Orion Nebula.

Like a "star nursery" in the universe. That's where many young stars begin to form.

This nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas with a structure influenced by the stellar wind and the radiation of the central star cluster called Trapezium .

Located about 1,500 light-years from Earth, the Orion Nebula is one of the brightest nebula visible to the naked eye.
