Appearing like a winged fairy-tale creature poised on a pedestal, this object is actually a billowing tower of cold gas and dust rising from a stellar nursery called the Eagle Nebula. The soaring tower is 9.5 light-years or about 90 trillion kilometres high, about twice the distance from our Sun to the next nearest star.

Stars in the Eagle Nebula are born in clouds of cold hydrogen gas that reside in chaotic neighbourhoods, where energy from young stars sculpts fantasy-like landscapes in the gas. The tower may be a giant incubator for those newborn stars. A torrent of ultraviolet light from a band of massive, hot, young stars [off the top of the image] is eroding the pillar.

 

  • Not available in posters due to the panoramic size, so it is available as a print instead; which can be used as a poster. :)

 

  • Canvases are traditional ready-to-hang canvases. 

 

  • The space photograph is included with frames and will be fully mounted and framed upon arrival. The print within the frame is printed on Fuji Archival paper, which makes photos pop as if it was taken in 3D! It also has a lifetime of over 100 years before it begins to fade. 

 

  • Please note that the image online is of lower quality and is NOT the image quality that will be printed. The image quality on print is far far greater than what appears within the example photos here online. :)
