Two views of a cosmic classic NASAHubble captured this iconic view of the Pillars of Creation, showing off towers that stretch light-years in length, around 7,000 light-years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Serpens. The Pillars of Creation are part of an active star-forming region within the Eagle Nebula, hiding newborn stars in the columns of dust and gas. In this image captured in visible light, blue represents oxygen, red sulfur, and green is both nitrogen and hydrogen. NASAWebb also captured the Pillars of Creation in near-infrared-light, helping researchers revamp their ideas on how new stars form in nebulae. By viewing the cosmic phenomena in different wavelengths, scientists can get a more precise count of stars hidden within and beneath the pillars. Image descriptions: Two images are shown of the Pillars of Creation, a star-forming region in space. The first one is Hubble’s visible-light view, which shows darker pillars that rise from the bottom to...
