NASA最新发表的韦伯太空望远镜近红外光视图,呈现出”创造之柱”的千变万化色彩。 这些柱子看起来像从沙漠景观中升起的拱门,充满了半透明的气体和灰尘,并且不断变化。 这是一个形成年轻恒星的区域。

The Pillars of Creation are set off in a kaleidoscope of color in NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s near-infrared-light view. 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.
