Pillars of Creation 3D Display Shows Evaporation
A photograph taken by the Hubble Space telescope is thought to be one of the most amazing space photographs ever captured. The “Pillars of Creation,” [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillars_of_Creation] is a picture of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula resembling elephant trunks. The pillars are about seven thousand light years from Earth. The picture is of gas and dust in the middle of creating new stars with illumination coming from within and without. The image itself is remarkable, but knowing what’s taking place makes it even more so.
Taken on April 1 in 1995, the Pillars of Creation was named one of the top ten photographs from Hubble on space.com. Jeff Hester and Paul Scowen
