The Horsehead is probably one of the best-known objects in the
sky. In curious contrast to its fame among the general public, the
number of scientific studies of the Horsehead is very limited. In
this talk, I'll review our recent millimeter wavelength study of the
Horsehead, discussing its structure and star forming properties, as
well as ideas about the formation, evolution and ultimate fate of
this well-known nebula.
