飞进猎户座星云会是什么样子?猎户座星云令人兴奋的动态可视化是基于真实的天文数据和熟练的电影渲染技术。近距离和个人与一个著名的恒星托儿所通常在1500光年之外看到,数字模型表示基于斯皮策太空望远镜的红外数据。这个视角在该地区巨大分子云的壁中沿着一个光年宽的山谷移动。猎户座山谷的尽头是一个由四边形星团中心大质量恒星的高能风和辐射雕刻而成的空洞。整个猎户座星云跨度约40光年,与太阳位于银河系的同一螺旋臂上。

What would it look like to fly into the Orion Nebula? The exciting dynamic visualization of the Orion Nebula is based on real astronomical data and adept movie rendering techniques. Up close and personal with a famous stellar nursery normally seen from 1,500 light-years away, the digitally modeled representation based is based on infrared data from the Spitzer Space Telescope. The perspective moves along a valley over a light-year wide, in the wall of the region's giant molecular cloud. Orion's valley ends in a cavity carved by the energetic winds and radiation of the massive central stars of the Trapezium star cluster. The entire Orion Nebula spans about 40 light years and is located in the same spiral arm of our Galaxy as the Sun.
