GAS PLUME NEAR THE EDGE OF ORION NEBULA         STSCI PR-92-29A
Wide Field/Planetary Camera

This HST "true color" mosaic image of a small portion of the Orion
Nebula shows a wealth of detail never seen before.  New features
include: elongated objects oriented on the brightest stars in this
region (which are located just off the edge of the picture); rapidly
expanding plumes of material around young stars and protoplanetary
disks.  This photograph is a composite of separate images taken at the
wavelengths of three abundant elements in the nebula - hydrogen, oxygen
and nitrogen.
