The Trifid Nebula, also known as Messier 20 (M20), is a large star-forming region located in the southern constellation Sagittarius.
The Trifid Nebula is a rare combination of three nebulae types that reveal the fury of freshly formed stars and point to more star birth in the future. The Trifid Nebula, M20 or NGC6514, is a familiar sight and an excellent example of an emission and reflection nebula.

But where visible light pictures show the nebula divided into three parts by dark, obscuring dust lanes, this penetrating infrared image … Unicorn Nebula. This video sequence compares a new view of the Trifid Nebula in infrared light, from the VVV VISTA survey with a more familiar visible-light view from a small telescope.
