Enhanced HST image of The Eagle Nebula

The Eagle Nebula or Star Queen Nebula is a young open cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens, discovered by Jean-Philippe de Cheseaux in 1745-46. Its name derives from its shape that is thought to resemble an eagle. It contains several active star-forming gas and dust regions, including the famous "Pillars of Creation", photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope.

Pillars of Creation is a photograph taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of elephant trunks of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula. They are so named because the gas and dust are in the process of creating new stars, while also being eroded by the light from nearby stars that have recently formed. This is a beautiful and colorful design for anyone who enjoys searching the night sky and astronomy art.

Gas pillars in the Eagle Nebula. Computer artwork of dark pillars of dense molecular hydrogen and dust in the Eagle Nebula (M16). The pillars are one light year in length and the most dense parts are known as evaporating gaseous globules (EGGs), which contain embryonic stars. Ultraviolet radiation from nearby young stars evaporates the gas from the pillars, limiting the amount of gas and dust the embryonic stars can gather. The Eagle Nebula is about 7000 light years from Earth.

The "Pillars of Creation" are trunks of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula, some 7,000 light years from Earth.They are so named because the gas and dust are in the process of creating new stars, while also being eroded by the light from nearby stars that have recently formed. The pillars are composed of cool molecular hydrogen and dust that are being eroded by photoevaporation from the ultraviolet light of relatively close and hot stars. The leftmost pillar is about four light years in length. Photo print. Credits: NASA, ESA and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA)

Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula. 2014 Hubble Space Telescope (HST) image showing dark pillars of dense molecular hydrogen and dust in the Eagle Nebula (M16). Ultraviolet light from young stars (out of frame) evaporates gas from the one light-year-long pillars, creating the halo-like effect. The small protrusions on the pillars contain globules of even denser gas which are embryonic stars; these have been dubbed Evaporating Gaseous Globules, or EGGs. The evaporation of the pillar limits the amount of gas and dust which these embryonic stars can gather. The Eagle Nebula is about 7000 light years from Earth, in the constellation Serpens. This iconic image was first obtained in 1995 (see image C032/1712) and was titled 'Pillars of Cr...

The Pillars of Creation is a photograph taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of clouds of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula. Here we combine the visible light images of the pillars with the infrared images that show many, many more faint stars. tiokvadrat

The Pillars of Creation are located in the southern portion of the Eagle Nebula.

The Eagle nebula is a perfect preacher of Intelligent Design; nothing is impossible, really. Ask the experts: cosmologists, astronomers, physicists, theologians, and everyone else. Einstein believed in an unconcerned Creator. Credit ESA/Hubble for nebula picture, however it is altered.
