A deep exposure shows that the dark familiar shaped indentation, visible just right of center, is part of a vast complex of absorbing dust and glowing gas. The featured spectacular picture details an intricate tapestry of gaseous wisps and dust-laden filaments that were created and sculpted over eons by stellar winds and ancient supernovas. The Flame Nebula is visible in orange just to the Horsehead&#8217;s left. To highlight the dust and gas, most of the stars have been digitally removed, although a notable exception is Alnitak, just above the Flame Nebula, which is the rightmost star in Orion&#8217;s famous belt of three aligned stars. The Horsehead Nebula lies 1,500 light years distant towards the constellation of Orion. via NASA <a href=\"https:\/\/apod.nasa.gov\/apod\/ap220829.html\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The famous Horsehead Nebula in Orion is not alone.
