The Orion Nebula complex consisting of M42, M43 and the reflection nebula area known as the Running Man Nebula, NGC 1973-5-7. NGC 1981 is the blue star cluster at top north edge. North is up, though in the sky from Australia where this was shot the object appeared upside down compared to this northern-centric view.

This is a portrait of the main nebulosity in Orion in his Sword, including: the Orion Nebula itself (at centre), aka Messiers 42 and 43, and the Running Man Nebula above (aka NGC 1973-5-7). The bright blue star cluster NGC 1981 shines above the Running Man. The subtle reflection nebula NGC 1999 is below M42 but a bit lost amid the other faint and dusty nebulosity.

A widefield view of Orion's Belt and Sword showing the complex of nebulosity in the area. The three Belt stars are at top (L to R): Alnitak,Alnilam and Mintaka,with the dark Horsehead Nebula (B33) below Alnitak. Above Alnitak is the pinkish Flame Nebula,NGC 2024. At bottom are Messiers 42 and 43,making up the Orion Nebula,with the bluish Running Man Nebula above it,aka NGC 1973-5-7. Above it is the star cluster NGC 1981. Messier 78 is just on frame at upper left. Numerous other bits of emission and reflection nebulas populate the field amid a backdrop of faint emission nebulosity. The stars ar
