This newly reprocessed image provides a new view of an enormous, 9.5-light-year-tall pillar of cold gas and dust, part of the greater Eagle Nebula, also called Messier 16. The Eagle Nebula is one of many nebulae in the Milky Way that are known for their sculpted, dusty clouds. Nebulae take on these fantastic shapes when exposed to powerful radiation and winds from infant stars. via ESA/Hubble & NASA, K. Noll

Eagle Nebula

Take a trip through our Galaxy to the Eagle Nebula with NASA and ESA as I audibly describe what is captured by Hubble.

🦅 Eagle Nebula’s Towering Beauty

This cosmic pillar rises 9.5 light-years (~90 trillion km) high!

A stellar nursery where new stars are born.

Pamiętacie zapierające dech w piersi zdjęcia z Teleskopu Hubble’a? Filary Stworzenia? Pillars of Creation?
Nooo. Pamiętacie.

Spróbowałem coś tam zrobić z M16 (Mgławica Orzeł). Takie pierwsze moje podejście do tego obiektu. Z małego teleskopu, z balkonu w mieście.

Będę się jeszcze z nim bawić i smażyć.

This newly reprocessed image released on April 18, 2025, provides a new view of an enormous, 9.5-light-year-tall pillar of cold gas and dust. Despite its size, it’s just one small piece of the greater Eagle Nebula, also called Messier 16. The Eagle Nebula is one of many nebulae in the Milky Way that are known for their sculpted, dusty clouds.

Fantastic imagery from the various space telescopes. The latest to celebrate the Chandra X-ray telescope's 25th anniversary.

My favourite has always been M16 (the Eagle Nebula) - first was the image from the Hubble, but every iteration since then has still held fascination for me...

Almost finished with my #wip M16 “Pillars of Creation” as seen in infrared by JWST. Need to do final outlines in silver, put in the main stars and rays.

Good morning Masto. I haven’t been very social (media) this week, sorry. Here’s a new painting I started! (I think my numbering system is shot at this point, is this #wip 3C? Sure why not.)

#SkyWatch #Astrophotography The #EagleNebula aka #M16 is a young open cluster of stars about 5700 light years from Earth. The cluster contains approximately 8100 stars and includes the active area called the Pillars of Creation, made famous by a Hubble Telescope image. The nebula rose at about 10pm last night and set at about 12:30am but is only visible for me for about an hour and a half which is the longest it is visible all year. This image is 16 five minute exposures #StillLearning
