On Wednesday, NASA and the European Space Agency revealed another fresh look at the pillars from the sharp eyes of the James Webb Space Telescope.
A new composite image shows a combined view of the Pillars of Creation as seen by the James Webb Space Telescope's NIRCam and MIRI instruments in infrared.
The telescope team previously released a Pillars of Creation view from the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) in October and then followed that up with an image from its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI).
"This is one of the reasons why the region is overflowing with stars -- dust is a major ingredient of star formation," NASA said.
