This is not a great image of this object, but it is the best one I've done to date. Located in the constellation of Orion, the Hunter, the Horsehead is part of a dense cloud of gas in front of an active star-forming nebula known as IC434 (also known as B-33). This nebula is near Alnitak, the easternmost star of Orion's belt.
Image was taken on 10/22/2011. 7x5 minutes, 35 minutes total exposure.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
