ALT A bright blue-white cluster of stars shines at the center of the image, surrounded by glowing red clouds and additional stars, all against black space.

ALT Orion Nebula. Vibrant clouds of orange, purple, pink, gray-green and yellow shine against a black, star-speckled background. The colors are arranged in roughly two connected sections: a smaller, roughly crescent-like piece in the upper left corner, and a larger fan-shaped portion that extends from the bottom of the crescent to the bottom lower right. Several stars shine throughout and around the nebula.

ALT Slightly oblique view of a spiral galaxy with a glowing yellow central core and two spiral arms that wind clockwise from the center. The arms consist of dark reddish-brown dust trails that are vein-like and hazy clouds of blue stars. The outer regions of the galaxy appear bluer, with bright clusters of blue stars sparsely lining the outer edges of the spiral arms. There are a few foreground stars that have bright white or blue cores with colorful fuzzy halos and four diffraction spikes radiating from their centers. Scattered across the dark background are thousands of faint objects that vary in size, shape, and color. Most appear as small dots, ovals, or lines in different shades of orange, red, and blue.

ALT Thousands of bright points of light on a black background fill the field of view. They appear somewhat more concentrated near the center of the image. They have a variety of colors, with the most prominent stars appearing blue or yellow-orange. The brighter stars also display four diffraction spikes.
