Messier 78 or M78 (also designated NGC 2068) is a diffuse nebula in the constellation Orion. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 8.3 and its angular diameter is 8x6 arc-minutes. M78 lies at an estimated distance of 1600 light years. The Equinox 2000 coordinates are RA= 5h 46.7m, Dec= +00° 03´ which makes M78 best seen during the winter.

M78 is classified as a reflection nebula because the dust particles are reflecting starlight from the intensely hot, young stars beneath it. VISTA, the infrared survey telescope at ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile, captured an exquisite portrait of this star-forming region in 2016.

M78 is the brightest diffuse reflection nebula of a group of nebulae that includes NGC 2064, NGC 2067 and NGC 2071. This group belongs to the Orion B molecular cloud complex and is about 1,350 light-years distant from Earth. M78 is easily found in small telescopes as a hazy patch and involves two stars of 10th and 11th magnitude.

2012年7月2日 · M78 También conocida como NGC 2068, es la nebulosa de reflexión más brillante del cielo, ubicada en la constelación de Orión. Pertenece al complejo de Orión, una gran nube de gas y polvo en el centro de la Nebulosa de Orión (M42/M43), que se encuentra a 1.600 años luz de distancia (foto portada).

2024年12月7日 · M 78 (NGC 2068) is one of the best known reflection nebula. It is situated in the constellation of Orion around 1600 light years away. It is the brightest diffuse reflection nebula in the sky and can be seen with binoculars. I thought it would be interesting to zoom in on the main portion for a closer look.

In this article, I’ll show you how to find and explore this charming and often overlooked nebula in Orion. M78 reflection nebula captured by the Wide Field Imager camera at La Silla Observatory, Chile. (Source) When Was M78 Discovered and What Do We Know About It?

M78 lies in the Orion B molecular cloud. This beautiful refection nebula is lit by 2 type “B” stars”. It lies about 1350 ly away. This is a wonderful, dusty star forming region. Note the small cluster of reddish Herbig-Haro objects on the top left of the image.
