UKIDSS color image (JHK) of the MIR-63 and the MIR-62 region in the southern part of NGC 2023. Both stars are labeled. The very red binary system in the middle of the image is MIR-63. The western component of the binary coincides with the visible star. MIR-62 is ~65″ north of MIR-63. We have labeled the bar Sheffer et al. (2011) called SR, the southern ridge, which extends east of the star at a PA ~110°. There is a dark lane (cavity) on the opposite side. We outlined the extent of the blue outflow lobe centered on the southern ridge with a hatched white ellipse. The HH object that Malin et al. (1987) labeled HH 1 is also labeled. In this image, it appears as a faint extended red feature. The size of the image is 183.6″ × 101.6″.
