Isn’t the Horsehead Nebula located somewhere in Orion? Possibly in the belt area? I remember spending many nights back in the mid 90s searching for this particular nebula, being fascinated by the pictures I’d seen. My 6” scope just wasn’t able to pick it out, although I was probably looking right at it. (By the way, this was in Cheyenne, Wyoming, which is up over 6000 feet and has nice, clear, dark skies).

Your mention of the Horsehead Nebula got me thinking — a sci-fi adaptation of the Godfather... yeah, I can see it...
:’) The answer though, is, I don’t know.
