Hubble Space Telescope Take a stunning new image of the bright variable star V 372 Orionis and its companion star.
Telescopes from NASA and the European Space Agency captured stars in the Orion Nebula, a star-forming region located about 1,450 light-years from Earth.
The companion star appears in the upper left corner.
V 372 Orionis is a special type of variable star known as an Orion Variable.
NASA is successfully testing a new engine for deep space exploration

Lumpy gas and dust from the Orion Nebula are visible in the image. Orion variables are most commonly associated with diffuse nebulae.
The team’s image overlays data from two of the telescope’s instruments – the Advanced Camera for Surveys and the Wide Field Camera 3.
Data was layered in visible and infrared wavelengths to reveal area detail.
An astronaut aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis captured this image with the Hubble Space Telescope on May 19, 2009.
