    "Proplyd" sounds like something one is happy not to hear about after a colonoscopy.
  • Thank you Anton for this video about M42. Although I am nobody and never discovered anything, I spent countless hours in the Orion Nebula between 2001 and 2006 with my equatorial mounted 10" Newtonian telescope.
  • Thanks Anton, they look like they are straight out of the original series of STAR TREK . Have a wonderful day and " LIVE LONG AND PROSPER " PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
  • It's amazing that these O type stars can still effect young systems at such incredible distances, 63,000 AU, or One light year.
  • @daleb5967
    Bow shock from the heliosheath.... Wow. Good find...
  • This just shows us how much luck this solar system has had over its lifetime so far.
  • @jimcurtis9052
    Wonderful as always Anton. Thank you. 🙂☺️✌️

    I’ve captured the most detailed image of Uranus ever seen, it’s magnificent.
  • @marshalpalmer
    It’s incredible how many things there are in the universe that “shouldn’t exist”
  • Clicked faster than the flash could even comprehend…. And that’s fast
  • @notgreg123
    That's the most metal thing I've heard of in space. Young star systems being effectively sterilized by a star a whole light year away that presumably manages to be brighter than the primary star in the system. That's insane
  • Next on ancient aliens, astronomers catch alien ship coming out of a wormhole. 😂
  • Can't they calculate how long these stars have been getting blasted by measuring the length of their tails compared with the speed of the material in them?
  • @George-rk7ts
    Great work, Anton. I really like the way showed ab assortment of problems instead of just the photogenic ones. They are all cool. Stay wonderful!
  • @MrConspark
