Data Reveals That the Orion Nebula Cluster is a Mix of Two Clusters
The Orion Nebula, also known as Messier 42 (or M42 for short), is the nearest star-forming region to Earth, located approximately 1,350 light-years away and is about 2 million years old.

The Orion Nebula is 1,500 light-years away, the nearest star-forming region to Earth. Astronomers used 520 Hubble images, taken in five colours, to make this picture. They also added ground-based photos to fill out the nebula. The ACS mosaic covers approximately the apparent angular size of the full moon.

The Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC, M42) is a dense star cluster that is part of a complex star-forming region at a distance of about 400 pc (Jeffries 2007; Sandstrom et al. 2007; Menten et al. 2007). Due to its relative proximity, the ONC is one of the best observationally studied star clusters.. Having a black hole mass of โ10.

The Orion Nebula Cluster might be home to a black hole more than 100 times the mass of the Sun, according to a recent simulation. At 1,300 light-years away, that would make it the closest known black hole to Earth. Most of space is empty. Even when galaxies collide, individual stars are far more likely to exchange passing glances than meet head-on.
