The Pillars are gas clouds from which new stars will form. Nothing religious about creating stars from gas, it's how that's done. Anybody who wants to go toe-to-toe with science to defend/promote/annoy is just admitting they don't have shit.

Question for Astronophiles

The OP reads like it was written by a pre-ChatGPT chatbot.
An easy search explains what the "pillars of creation" photo of the nebula M16 is about. (July 16, 2023 at 3:28 am)Won2blv Wrote: Take the pillars of creation image you find online. It can't literally be a picture of such a mass but still be an accurate representation of what it honestly looks like from relative perspective? Its not just a lucid dream somebody had one day where they stored all the secrets they kept away from their customers and then they paid a bunch of NASA hacks to claim it was a verified image of a celestial higher power? Science doesn't demand faith. You could actually go look at the data and confirm for yourself that that is what the light hitting the HST really shows. All the rest looks like codswallop, so I won't bother. (July 16, 2023 at 3:43 am)Won2blv Wrote:(July 16, 2023 at 3:37 am)BrianSoddingBoru4 Wrote: What are you saying? You smell like a concern troll.

Hey I'm not an Astronophile! That Interstellar Gas and Dust was 6000 Years old when I was staring at them with my telescope!

Even better, but an amateur telescope and a camera that can take long exposure images. Find M16 in the scope and take a picture. You won't see as much as the HST or WST, but you will be able to see that they are looking at the same thing as you are. The space telescopes (or professional scopes) will have a LOT more detail, but you can see for yourself what the Eagle Nebula looks like. I have seen it myself. If you want an even easier object, look at the Orion Nebula just under Orion's belt. It is very nice even in a small scope and wonderful if you can do photography.
M16? We are supposed to shoot at the universe?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
I like the dragon's head on the Pillars.
