Two images of M78 are seen. On the left, a ground-based view shows a starry region of space with orange-ish glowing regions of gas and dust. On the right, a "pulled out" inset image shows a close-up of the nebula, mostly blue in the upper left diagonal half, and mostly brown and yellow in the lower right diagonal.
