The pure rotational S(2) transition of molecular hydrogen at 12.28 microns has been detected in emission from the region of vibrational-rotational line emission in Orion. The line was resolved both spectrally and spatially, and the line shapes, widths, and velocities are consistent with those observed in the upsilon = 1-0 transitions. The results put new constraints on the structure, temperature, and dynamics of the region of molecular hydrogen emission.
