The Orion Nebula is one of the brightest star-forming regions visible in the night sky even with the naked eye.
in the Trapezium cluster mix with a molecular cloud, triggering complex ionizing reactions. At the center of the bar, the star Theta2 Orionis A shines brightly with the characteristic diffraction spikes that are a side-effect of the design of the James Webb Space Telescope's mirror.The James Webb Space Telescope reveals the Orion Nebula in unprecedented detail.
The image also reveals new-born stars at various stages of their development. Toward the upper left corner of Theta2 Orionis A, inside the bar, is a young star forming inside a globule, a shroud of dust and gas that has collapsed together under the force of gravity to give rise to the new star. On the right-hand side, below the Trapezium cluster, is a star wrapped in a cocoon of planet-forming material that is being eroded by the strong ultraviolet radiation from the Trapezium stars.
