Pillars of creation.. too beast, it cuts us down to size when that magnificent huge thing of gas/dust that is larger than our entire solar system makes stars. I wish I could just scoops a hand full of it.
And they don't use visual range of photography for nebulas. They take pictures applying the three primary colors of light assigned to the composition of the nebula. Red shows emission from singly-ionized sulfur atoms. Green shows emission from hydrogen. Blue shows light emitted by doubly- ionized oxygen atoms. So, if you were to look at the nebula it wouldn't look like the picture shown.
do you even bother to look stuff up before you comment, this is so not FAKE, Google the eagle nebula you should find a few pics, but many sources including Hubble have this same pic.why do you think they call it the eagle nebula i bet you think the horse head nebula is fake too........ Your welcome for now believing in the beauty and mysticism of space.
@swomplode just for the record, no it doesn't look like that to the naked eye. but in layman's terms, only using special telescopes that can access and display the ultra-violet light spectrum, among other things, can one see the true beauty of the most awesome visual ever discovered in nature. to your credit, yes it does look impossibly unnatural, but it's been a known fact for quite some time that these exist and can occur after a star goes supernova.
@swomplode i know your comment was over a year old, but it just cracked me up so much. i must apologize, but for you to call a scientific fact which happens to be the most beautiful anomaly in the universe "fake" just really is the most hilarious accusation i've ever seen on youtube. so i'm wondering, a year has passed, do you still think nebula are fake?
@swomplode wow. i .. uhh... just wow. you honest to goodness believe that? what about the Pioneer and Voyager space probe missions, well known of for over thirty years, one of them made it to the far side of Neptune. The fact that you still dispute the reality of the Hubble pictures of the nebula just amazes me. You're entitled to your opinion, and i'll not try to get a blind man to see. Still, this doesn't mean you can't enjoy their beauty, might I suggest the Tarantula Nebula, my personal fav.
@swomplode funny. ha how old are you btw? ya voyager was a tv show, loved by trekkies across the globe (i'll never know why, i dont see how you could improve on the next generation but oh well). but it long before that, Voyager was a space probe in the 70's and nearly completed a tour of our solar system. The Hubble, on the other hand, which brought us these photos, is equipped with the now standard instruments that allow us to observe certain light spectrum (xrays, ultraviolet, etc.) in space.

@whyhatestrangers That stuff might be real but theres no way to know yet because we've never sent anything further than the moon.
