Image: 'Pillars of Creation' captured by the James Webb Telescope in 2022. The 'pillars' are approximately 30 trillion miles high and 48 trillion miles wide. Yet, they are less than 7% the size of the Eagle nebula in which they are located. The pillars look like arches and spires rising out of a desert landscape, but are filled with semi-transparent gas and dust, and ever changing. This is a region where young stars are forming – or have barely burst from their dusty cocoons as they continue to form. (NASA)
