This sketch shows a southwest cross section passing through the Trapezium and Orion-S. The MIF is depicted as flat behind Orion-S only because of a lack of information as to its true shape there. Although dimensions are shown, the uncertainty in the exact positions means that the figure is not drawn to scale.
