The WISE data reveals the entire structure of the nebula surrounding the pillars, which themselves can be seen as a faint yellow-green feature inside the white circle. While the WISE view of the "Pillars" is not as sharp as those taken by Webb and Hubble, the telescope's wide field of view allows us to explore the extended nebula around it.
This video clip shows a visualization of the three-dimensional structure of the Pillars of Creation. Closer view of one pillar. Pillars of Creation is a photograph taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of elephant trunks of interstellar gas and dust in the Eagle Nebula, in the Serpens constellation, some 6,500–7,000 light-years (2,000–2,100 pc; 61–66 Em) from Earth.

English: NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s mid-infrared view of the Pillars of Creation strikes a chilling tone. Thousands of stars that exist in this region disappear – and seemingly endless layers of gas and dust become the centerpiece.
Perhaps one of the most iconic, though, is its capture of Hubble’s Pillars of Creation photo in 1995. The photo, which features one of the most detailed images of the Eagle Nebula, is a ...
The James Webb telescope has captured an image of the Pillars of Creation that could reshape thinking about star formation. ... a star-forming nursery in the Eagle Nebula roughly 6,500 light-years ...
The new bigger and sharper version of the "Pillars of Creation" photo was released Monday as part of the lead up to the 25th anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope's launch, and reveals new ...
A more slowly moving, theorized, shock wave would have taken a few thousand years to move through the nebula and would have blown away the delicate pillars. However, in 2014 the pillars were imaged a second time by Hubble, in both visible light and infrared light. The images being 20 years later provided a new, detailed account of the rate of ...
Hubble took the first photo of the Pillars of Creation in 1995. Decades later, Webb captured its clouds of gas and dust in even more detail. Side-by-side images of the 'Pillars of Creation' show ...
