The Great Orion Nebula Winter brings us the great nebula in Orion's sword.
All astronomers look forward to the first glimpses of the massive bright nebula.
I'll stay up til dawn in late summer to see it rising just before the sun. The nebula is rich in detail and requires much time to delve into its treasures. It is so bright that it plays tricks with our senses in late spring. Just after the sun sets, the great nebula is alive with color not typically seen in the heavens. Hues of browns, ruddy reds, and soft purples trick our senses of what should be there.
