The brightest star near the center of the image is one of the
better trapezium systems besides theta-1 Ori in the Orion Nebula.
It is HD 5005 = ADS 719 and has four brighter close components
within a few arcseconds. Notice the slight doubling of one set of
the diffraction spikes on the star in Jon's image.
