This is the Flame Nebula! The vibrant clumps of gas in this nebula are assumed to be proplyds, which are disks of gas around young stars that may form planets. This appears to be common all throughout the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex, which not only includes the Flame Nebula but also other famous nebulae like the Horsehead Nebula and the Orion Nebula! ✨✨✨Taken by me (Michelle Park) using the Slooh Chile Two telescope on November 23rd, 2021 at 1:58 UTC. -- source link
