We’re off on an expedition through the nebula Barnard 33, a mysterious region of the Orion constellation. In the distance, it looks as though a thick black cloud of gas and dust is spreading, progressively covering the burning sky. Moments pass, we hear the galloping and hedging of a horse. A shape appears: the head of a lonely horse popping out of the ragged clouds. We are witnessing a ghost rider in the sky.
