First velocity-resolved [O I] 63/145 um maps of the Orion BN/KL outflow show broad components from dense warm postshock gas, with line ratios matching 30-40 km/s dissociative J-shocks illuminated by external UV, yielding [O I] luminosity 86.5 L_sun and mass-loss rate ~9e-3 M_sun/yr.

Velocity-resolved [O I] 63,145 um, [C II] 158 um, and OH mapping along the Orion BN/KL explosive outflow and irradiated shocks
