A 33 micron map of the Orion Nebula showing the Kleinmann-Low Nebula and the Trapezium region at high spatial resolution is presented. The emission from the Trapezium can be explained by radiation from a single temperature grain population with long wavelength characteristics similar to known silicates. The Kleinmann-Low Nebula appears larger at 33 microns than at 20 microns, in accordance with predictions of a model for KL as a centrally heated, optically thick cloud. An upper limit to the emission from the Becklin-Neugebauer point source is set.
