Baby stars are creating chaos 1,500 light-years away in the cosmic cloud
of the Orion Nebula. Four massive stars make up the bright yellow area
in the center of this false-color image for NASA's Spitzer Space
Telescope. Green indicates hydrogen and sulfur gas in the nebula, which
is a cocoon of gas and dust. Red and orange indicate carbon-rich
molecules. Infant stars appear as yellow dots embedded in the nebula.
