The Orion Nebula (M42, NGC 1976)
The Orion Nebula (M42) is close to Earth in universe scale at only 1,344 light years away. The nebula is visible to the naked eye, even in light polluted areas as a "fuzzy" star in the middle of Orion's sword,, to the south of Orions belt. This nebula is busy forming new planets and stars.
