    [M43 in IR, 2MASS]

    Infrared image of M43, De Mairan's Nebula. This image was taken from the 2MASS Atlas images, obtained with the 2MASS IR telescopes in Arizona and Chile. It was cropped from a larger image of the whole Orion Nebula, M42/M43. Exposure time was only 10 minutes.

    As all IR images it is a false-color image, in this case, color-coded for IR wavelengths bands, with red assigned to the coolest, longest wavelength and farthest IR radiation, blue to the warmest, shortest wavelength and nearest (to visible light) IR.
