The reflection nebula NGC 1788 seems to spread gigantic dusty wings in a picture captured by the European Southern Observatory's MPG/ESO 2.2-meter telescope in Chile. The batwings are actually clouds of gas and dust that scatter light emanating from a cluster of young stars in the constellation Orion. This picture was released on March 3.
