Caption: Figure 6.

ALMA 1.3 mm image showing the 230 GHz CO J = 2−1 emission at low radial-velocities formed by integrating the line intensity over a velocity range from VLSR = −1 to +5 km s−1 (shown in cyan) and VLSR = +14 to +20 km s−1 (shown in red). The ejected massive stars and outflow ejection center are shown as in Figure 4. Several additional outflows from young stars in the Orion A cloud can also be seen in this velocity range toward the north side of the image. The displayed intensities range from −7 to 63 K.
