An infrared light echo traveling from the lower left through the upper right of the image. The image is speckled with dozens of white stars, some showing Webb’s signature 8-point diffraction spikes, against the black background of space. The image also shows tightly packed, glowing red filaments that resemble muscle fibers or wood grain.⁣ Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, J. Jencson (Caltech/IPAC)⁣

Pillars of Creation.
Gorgeous as always, this star-forming region lies approximately 7,000 light-years away and spans 4-5 light-years.

The image showcases the iconic Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula, captured in stunning detail by the James Webb Space Telescope. The towering pillars of gas and dust, sculpted by the intense radiation and winds from nearby stars, appear in a rich tapestry of colors. The image reveals intricate details within the pillars, including newborn stars forming within dense pockets of gas, and jets of material being ejected from these young stars. This image offers a glimpse into the dynamic and awe-inspiring process of star formation, where new stars are born and shape their surroundings.
