New spectra of the 2.12μm line of H2 in Orion have been obtained during 1979 February at the Mount Wilson 2.5m and Palomar 5m telescopes. These data provide wider spatial coverage and higher spatial resolution than the observations reported earlier by Nadeau and Geballe (1979). The complete data, displayed here in two maps, are consistent with the earlier interpretation, which is summarized below.
