“Inside the Eagle Nebula” is copyrighted by T. A. Rector. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Eagle Nebula, from a distance, resembles its namesake. Up close, it is a window into a star-forming region. Inside this cavity, pillars and globules of dust and cold gas remain, actively forming new stars. Young, bright blue stars are already visible, their light and winds shaping the surrounding material.
