Proplyd 114-426 is a large protoplanetary disk seen in absorption in front of the emission of the Orion Nebula.
[4] Proplyd 114-426 was discovered in 1996 by Mark McCaughrean and Robert O'Dell with images of the Hubble Space Telescope.
[6] An infrared spectrum was published in 2004, showing that the central star had a spectral type of M0 and intermediate gravity.
[6] Additional Hubble observations showed that the disk is tilted, warped and experiences external photoevaporation.
[5] This "foot-like" structure could however belong to the Herbig-Haro object HH 530, which is located just north of proplyd 114–426.
[4] JWST NIRCam observed the central part of the Orion Nebula, including proplyd 114–426.
