The Orion Nebula reveals many of its hidden secrets in a dramatic image taken by the new United Kingdom-designed Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The survey telescope’s huge field of view can show the full splendor of the whole nebula, and VISTA’s infrared vision also allows it to peer deeply into dusty regions that are normally hidden and expose the curious behavior of the very active young stars buried there.
