Witness the birth of stars in mesmerizing detail. Welcome to the Pillars of Creation - a star nursery in the Eagle Nebula, 6500 light years away from Earth. Explore these stunning images of the Pillars of Creation and star nurseries from the Hubble and the James Webb Space Telescopes and witness the birth of stars in mesmerizing detail.
The Pillars of Creation are a place where new stars and solar systems are born. The pillars themselves are composed almost entirely of molecular hydrogen dust and gas that are constantly in the process of making new stars. These clouds of dust and gas are incredibly dense, and when they collapse, the gas contracts and gives birth to new stars. But this "birth of stars" is also contributing to the erosion of the pillars. Life and death, dear spacers. You just can't have one without the other. Scientists today are worried that the Pillars may not even exist anymore, as the images we are receiving are from a distant past. Enjoy the haunting images received by both the Hubble Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope, and thank you for spacing out with us.
