Slow your scroll! Watch an animation showing how winds and light from massive stars form pillars. The pillars’ tips are the densest.
Where have you seen pillars? Show us #NASAWebb and Hubble images in the comments!

Trabajo en visión y para explicar cómo vemos suelo empezar diciendo que los colores no existen, que son fruto de cómo nuestro cerebro interpreta las distintas longitudes de onda de la luz que llegan a nuestra #retina. Creo que va siendo hora de que haga por aquí un hilo sobre este tema. Hilo va!🧵

If you want to spend some quality time with #Euclid data, you can use "ESA Sky", which allows everyone to browse public data, pan, zoom, and look around. All in full colour galore, and full resolution.

Really cool! Try ESA Sky 🔭
The new EULICD data release is AMAZING! 🔭
Here's a before / after of a random galaxy I found in one of the new images, comparing against the Digitized Sky Survey.
I highly recommend taking a look around on ESA Sky - it's fun! Link: sky.esa.int/esasky/?targ...
