English: Sparkling at the edge of a giant cloud of gas and dust, the Flame Nebula, also referred to as NGC 2024, is in fact the hideout of a cluster of young, blue, massive stars, whose light sets the gas ablaze. Located 1300 light-years away towards the constellation of Orion, the nebula owes its typical colour to the glow of hydrogen atoms, heated by the stars. The latter are obscured by a dark, forked dusty structure in the centre of the image and are only revealed by infra-red observations.

Français : Image obtenue montrant la Nébuleuse de la flamme (ou NGC 2024), une région de formation d'étoiles dans la constellation d'Orion et ses environs, à 1300 années lumières de la Terre. En visible, comme sur cette image, le cœur de la nébuleuse est masqué par des nuages de poussière. La lumière colorée de la périphérie de la nébuleuse est due à des atomes d'hydrogène chauffés par des étoiles cachées par le nuage. Ces étoiles très jeunes sont visibles en infra-rouge. |
