Hi all, Even though I joined this forum 8 years ago, this is my first post. I have gleaned a lot of info here while lurking in the background. I am posting this question here because I consider this forum to be the best of the deep sky observers. The main reason for the post has to do with the image of the Orion Nebula taken by the James Webb. There is a photo of the “Bar Region” and if you drill down through the photos, there is one showing filaments. These filaments look very much like the ones I have seen in the region near the Trap and leading over to M43 (Fish Mouth?). I have asked others about seeing these filaments in that region and I get blank stares, or they run away. I was wondering how common it is to see these filaments? I have seen these in Chris Fuld’s 41 and in my 22. Just curious.
Bob
