Researchers with the PDRs4All project, which has members from several universities including Western University Published in the United States New research This week the so-called Orion Nebula—an often-studied region of space thought to be a hotbed of new star formation.
The new images show a specific region of the nebula called the „Orion Bar,” a „sharp, diagonal, ridge-like feature of gas and dust,” Western University said in a press release.
Else Peters of Western University, principal investigator of the PDRs4All project, said the new images „have such incredible detail that we will be studying them for years.”
