## Caption

Sometimes... there’s more than meets the eye. 👀 Swipe to reveal two very different takes on an iconic image. ⁣
⁣
In the first image, researchers revisited one of NASAHubble's most popular sights: the Eagle Nebula’s Pillars of Creation. Here, the pillars are seen in infrared light, which pierces through obscuring dust and gas and unveil a more unfamiliar — but just as amazing — view of the pillars. ⁣
⁣
The entire frame is peppered with bright stars and baby stars are revealed being formed within the pillars themselves. Swipe left to view the same image in visible light.⁣
