The Great Orion Nebula
==================

M42 is special for me. It's the reason I started my astronomy journey and it's my favorite object in the winter night sky. I keep coming back to it again and again and it became a nice benchmark of my skills in astrophotography.

Incredible New Image of the Orion Nebula from JWST

The Orion Nebula is one of the brightest star-forming regions in the sky, easily visible in a small telescope. But you've never seen anything like this new image from JWST. Researchers have created enormous mosaics of the region in both short and long-wavelength channels. An interactive interface from ESA allows you to zoom in and out of the image and switch between the views. You can see details in the stellar discs and outflows in the short-wavelength version, while the long-wavelength version reveals the network of dust and organic compounds.

Did a little amateur image processing this afternoon - am so very fascinated with the explosion fingers in the JWST Orion Nebula images.

These are beyond epic, and I can't stop staring at all the intricate details.

The original is a mosaic as the field of the view super large, but mine are the tiles only.

I hope @markmccaughrean likes these very amateur versions which I ran this afternoon through my imaging processing pipeline!

A reminder, you too can also process your own JWST images! See this basic guide to get started: spaceaustralia.com/news/proces
