New VLA Observations for the HH 1-2 Region: Evidence for Density Enhancements Moving Along the Axis of the VLA 1 Radio Jet

Using the Very Large Array, we have carried out new, sensitive radio continuum observations at 6 and 3.6 cm of the HH 1-2 region. The comparison between the 6 cm maps made from data taken in 1986.2 and 1992.9 indicates that VLA 1, the exciting source of the HH 1-2 flow, has suffered a morphological change that is attributed to the motion of a symmetric pair of knots along the axis of the radio jet.
