Eagle Nebula (IC 4703) and M16 star cluster in the Snake - Eagle nebula in...

IMAGE number
PIX4620035
Image title
Eagle Nebula (IC 4703) and M16 star cluster in the Snake - Eagle nebula in Serpens - The Eagle Nebula is a cluster of massive young stars (M16) surrounded by clouds of gas and dust. The three columns in the center of the image were sculpted by the intense radiation emitted by these massive stars. Stars will be born in these clouds if they survive the intense radiation that erodes these pillars. Image obtained by the 2,2m MPG/ESO telescope of the La Silla Observatory. Located in the constellation of Serpens, the Serpent, the Eagle Nebula is a very luminous open cluster of stars surrounded by dust and gas. The three pillars near the center of the image, made famous in an image by the Hubble Space Telescope, are being sculpted by the intense radiation from the hot stars in the cluster. This example is about 6000 - 7000 light years distant. Three - colour composite mosaic image based on images obtained with the Wide - Field Imager camera on the MPG/ESO 2.2 - metre telescope at the La Silla Observatory
