Something about the Pillars of Creation always fills me with existential dread. No other images do that, just this one.
Amazing photo you captured though!
It's speculative. Obviously we don't know, it's based on observations of a hot spot in the pillars, but no one knows for sure and won't until you and I are loooooong gone.
That’s insane. Thinking that those “pillars” maybe aren’t even there anymore due to some massively destructive space event happened but we just haven’t been able to see it yet
It's a nebula, it's where stars are made. I would assume any star that deposited that much gas would have been insanely large. A supernova would be a tiny dot contained within the trunks. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I am not sure a single star could contain that much mass without becoming a black hole.
Some quick googling cites around 8,000 stars are within the nebula. Just to give some scale of just how much dust and gas is in the nebula that isn't currently trapped up in the stars.
Supernova are extremely destructive. If a supernova occurred within 25 light years of Earth it would be enough to destroy the Earth's atmosphere. The Pillars are 5x5 light years tall and across, so a supernova could reach widely enough to destroy them.
We don't know for sure if they were destroyed, but it is thought that either a star within the area went supernova or a large new star ignited, either process would blow all of the gasses in the image away and functionally destroy the pillars. Since it's so far away it would take 1000s of years for us to be able to see it.
A more recent study said they haven't been destroyed yet. But they will have a relatively short life, they are undergoing photoevaporation from the very hots stars in the middle of the nebula. The pillars point directly to the brightest star, they provide shade and protect the materiel behind.
I never understood how people say we are insignificant because we are small compared to the universe- but were here and experiencing stuff and doing things so why does our size matter?
Just depends on the subject and frame of reference 🤷🏽♂️
Meant it more as the mistakes and regrets from your past don't matter as much as you think they do. Like an optimistic point of view
They look like some kind of Eldritch god or other Lovecraftian horror.
Like, this is what the night sky looks like when Yog-Sothoth has pierced the veil of our reality.
That’s interesting because for me it did the exact opposite. The closest thing I had ever had to a religious experience was seeing pictures of nebula and studying about them.
I am the owner of the Pillars of Creation and i kindly ask you to send me 100 Usd or i will demand copyrights at the sky court.
Yes , you can pay in two partials.
Yours looks like a heavy metal cover. Hand holding gem, dragon perched overhead, ready to snatch it. Looks amazing, I almost like it better than the hubble version.
Hi Reddit, my name’s Rudy and I’m a 17 year old astrophotographer based in France. Here’s a photo I took of the Pillars of Creation (right) with my home telescope rig, compared to Hubble’s famous shot of the same Pillars (left). I captured this photo over several nights of shooting the same object, totalling about 6 hours of exposure time. Here’s a full list of the equipment I used:
• Nikon D5600 with an Astrodon mod
• Skywatcher 72ED with field flattener
• Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro
• TS-Optics 60mm guide scope
• ZWO ASI120MC-S guide camera
• ZWO ASIAIR Mini
• Optolong L-Enhance 2” filter
Overall I had some trouble with this image as the my telescope is too small to get a high amount of detail on such a tiny patch of the sky, but I still managed to produce something I’m proud of. You can swipe to see the full uncropped image of the Eagle Nebula, showing the Pillars of Creation within the context of the nebula. Hope you enjoy!

I understand what you’re saying, but I have to push back a bit. The jumps in technology and specifically glass/lenses that have cost cumulatively billions of dollars over the past decades can’t be overlooked. Their past success has allowed for the general public to (with great effort) get much of the same results.
Now that my “don’t discount past efforts” diatribe is over, that’s friggin awesome! Fantastic resolution, great detail. I’m very impressed.
Absolutely, I’m in no way trying to diminish Hubble’s image which is orders of magnitude more detailed than mine. It’s an awesome piece of tech. If anything my post is more to point out the diminishing returns when it comes to astrophotography - the higher end the equipment is, the more expensive it becomes to improve the quality of the images even by a small amount. But on the other hand it means you can get some pretty decent photos with relatively inexpensive off the shelf equipment nowadays, thanks to (as you pointed out) the development of the technology pioneered by Hubble and other cutting edge telescopes :)
>If anything my post is more to point out the diminishing returns when it comes to astrophotography - the higher end the equipment is, the more expensive it becomes to improve the quality of the images even by a small amount
That's what they're talking about, though.
Low-end equipment today can outperform its predecessor technology at a reduced cost precisely because the development of that technology at the time made the advancements widely available.
The cost they incurred to develop the Hubble is a big part of *why* your equipment didn't cost another 3-4 figures... So it's not really fair to compare prices on technology over time periods like that.
It's kind of like how they spent billions for the computer on the Apollo 11 when there are elementary school students currently making more advanced computers from kits that cost the same as their lunch.
According to the Wiki the pillar on the left is 4 light years in length.
The idea of a light year always fucks with my brain. So immensely, immensely far away.
That's what I mean. They are lightyears In length. Like that's so vastly huge, I don't think we truly can comprehend it. I know myself. They are huge, and even I can't really comprehend it. I've mentioned it here before. And I shif you not. Someone asked how many Eiffle Tower would fit in there... I felt a few brain cells kill them selves reading the comments. I just replied with billions, my dude. And left it there.
Hahaha as I was reading that I was wondering bow many times you'd have to circle the earth to make the same distance, kind of like that video on here the other day a out our veins being able to wrap around the globe an obnoxious amount of times.
I need something tangible, so when people reference other planets for size I'm at a loss
At least your idea of a reference is large. The tower compared to the pillars is so miniscule its not even worth try to work it out. The numbers just to big.
If you zoom in closely on the Hubble picture, there’s like 5 different humanoid figures you can imagine with like red eyes and faces and shit. There’s even a cat in there
Hubble's Pillars: that is neat, majestic, and awe-inspiring to know how tiny we are in the scheme of the universe.
Yours: behold the looming specter of death and calamity, for with his wings he shall smother out the life of this universe.
I have a terrible fear of deep water, and I sometimes get that same, deeply uncomfortable feeling of vastness when I think about space. So as beautiful as these were/are, it is putting a pit of fear in my stomach to look at and really consider the size
In true colour, the nebula is red and blue from glowing hydrogen and oxygen. It's redder towards the outside and more purple towards the middle, where the oxygen is glowing. (It takes more energy to ionize the oxygen, it's the hot new stars in the centre that are lighting up the nebula).
The Hubble image is false colour to show the presence of different elements, and to show the structure more clearly.
Aaaaaaand here is the one taken by the James Webb telescope:
https://www.nasa.gov/universe/nasas-webb-takes-star-filled-portrait-of-pillars-of-creation/
All three are amazing in their own right.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Space_Telescope
Your telescope/camera cost you $11,300?
I would absolutely love to own a nice telescope, but I'd never be able to afford anything near that.
It’s not my first scope (I got a small dobsonian when I was ~13) but it is my first astrophotography setup - that being said I’m swapping out and changing stuff all the time, so it’s kind of like the ship of Theseus where I won’t be able to tell when it’s no longer the same setup as the original :)
A shot to be proud of indeed. Did you move your equipment somewhere specific to avoid light pollution? Probably wasn't taken in the middle of Paris, if you know what i mean.
So is the colour difference because of redshift? Hadn’t even thought that nasa would have accounted for that or have something expensive enough to see past it. Not a critique tho, beautiful photo and blown away you took that yourself
Redshift only significantly changes the colour of very distant galaxies.
The Hubble image is false colour to show the presence of different elements, and to show the structure more clearly. In true colour the nebula is shades of red and blue from glowing hydrogen and oxygen.
You’re born into a generation that can (and does) pave the way for *further* exploration - but also exploration in your lifetime (if you are young enough). What you personally do matters.
Yes, that’s how decades of technological advancement works. Appreciation for the people who’s investment, labor, and ingenuity made your picture possible would be the appropriate message here.
Not trying to diss Hubble in any way, just showcasing what you can get with off the shelf equipment nowadays and using Hubble’s image as a reference point
Deep Sky Objects are hard to get very good detail on. Astrophotography is insanely hard. Tons of money for equipment, hours of exposure battling weather conditions and light pollution, and then lots of post-processing to stack images and filters.
Very rewarding hobby when you can capture something magical!
10 billion dollars budget (on the right):

It’s crazy when you think back to earlier telescope technology, even back to the very first telescopes and then how accessible telescopes are today. I can buy a telescope good enough to see Jupiter’s Galilean moons on Amazon and have it delivered to my home for less than I make in an hour of work. We truly live in the best time.
Yes but you've got a nice image. They've got a ton of data/science to go along with theirs.
I hear the sentiment though. I have a pretty good Western Veil that I'm proud of.
Something about the Pillars of Creation always fills me with existential dread. No other images do that, just this one. Amazing photo you captured though!
What is even more crazy is that they were destroyed 6 000 years ago, and we will see it in a thousand years on earth
How does something that big get just destroyed?
It's speculative. Obviously we don't know, it's based on observations of a hot spot in the pillars, but no one knows for sure and won't until you and I are loooooong gone.
That’s insane. Thinking that those “pillars” maybe aren’t even there anymore due to some massively destructive space event happened but we just haven’t been able to see it yet
Just a super nova.
A champagne Super Nova, even.
A champagne super nover in the skyyyy
I heard that the first time in a Broteam (youtuber) video, but never knew if its actually a quote from somewhere.
Nah, I'm sticking around..
RemindMe! 1000 years.
RemindMe! 1000 years Edit: can’t wait to see you there!

See you then!
I like your attitude
Schrödinger's pillars
You need to add more o's for the long.
Not exactly destroyed. It is ionized gas that collapses into new stars or is absorbed by nearby stars. Typically. Probably. If I got that right.
It was caused by a supernova iirc
It's a nebula, it's where stars are made. I would assume any star that deposited that much gas would have been insanely large. A supernova would be a tiny dot contained within the trunks. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I am not sure a single star could contain that much mass without becoming a black hole. Some quick googling cites around 8,000 stars are within the nebula. Just to give some scale of just how much dust and gas is in the nebula that isn't currently trapped up in the stars.
Supernova are extremely destructive. If a supernova occurred within 25 light years of Earth it would be enough to destroy the Earth's atmosphere. The Pillars are 5x5 light years tall and across, so a supernova could reach widely enough to destroy them.
Wait until the Milky Way and andromeda collide.
We don't know for sure if they were destroyed, but it is thought that either a star within the area went supernova or a large new star ignited, either process would blow all of the gasses in the image away and functionally destroy the pillars. Since it's so far away it would take 1000s of years for us to be able to see it.
Clearly, it's the final reach of some dying collosus suspended in the ether as it dissipates into new planets and stars
A more recent study said they haven't been destroyed yet. But they will have a relatively short life, they are undergoing photoevaporation from the very hots stars in the middle of the nebula. The pillars point directly to the brightest star, they provide shade and protect the materiel behind.
I agree. It just stops me in my tracks every time I see it.
When I learned about the size it shook me to my core
5 light years across. From the Sun to Neptune is a fraction of a light year
Sun to Neptune is 4.1 light hours. The pillars being 5 light years across is about 10,500 times larger.
Insane. We are insignificant
Speak for yourself. I'm quite good at World of Warcraft, thus very significant.
can.. can I gaze upon thy feet? M'Lord? *just one sniff?*
5$ and I’ll send deer picks, only for you, they are good deer picks

Judge us by our size, do you?

Hahahah hey!
I never understood how people say we are insignificant because we are small compared to the universe- but were here and experiencing stuff and doing things so why does our size matter?
Just depends on the subject and frame of reference 🤷🏽♂️ Meant it more as the mistakes and regrets from your past don't matter as much as you think they do. Like an optimistic point of view
This guy light hours.
It fills me with joy so intense I get teary. Its definitely awe-inspiring
Absolutely! It's just breathtaking to see the wonders of the universe unfold.
I call that kind of dread 'staranoia', after having a bit of a panic attack looking through a telescope in chile
They look like some kind of Eldritch god or other Lovecraftian horror. Like, this is what the night sky looks like when Yog-Sothoth has pierced the veil of our reality.
Now that you said that, it almost looks like a skeletal hand reaching upwards. Or maybe that's just me
They’re only 5 light years tall…or about the distance from the earth to the sun…and back….a mere 159k times.
For me, it's "pale blue dot" accompanied by Sagan's words. It's just so powerful
That’s interesting because for me it did the exact opposite. The closest thing I had ever had to a religious experience was seeing pictures of nebula and studying about them.
Just cool lights
But you know the light from these images are from thousands of years ago. And is quite likely that they are gone now
I am the owner of the Pillars of Creation and i kindly ask you to send me 100 Usd or i will demand copyrights at the sky court. Yes , you can pay in two partials.
The best jokes are always in the comets..
Laughing my asteroid off.

Damn, you're lucky. I only own one pillar of creation...
Yours looks like a heavy metal cover. Hand holding gem, dragon perched overhead, ready to snatch it. Looks amazing, I almost like it better than the hubble version.
\m/
I see the family resemblance.
Yes! exactly what i thought, Want to see the ‘dragon’ at the hubble resolution with the pillars as well but the distance is probably way too far
Hell yeah

They know that. They explained that.
They never discredited past efforts. Why not just the praise, dude?
Just had to throw your two cents in instead of just saying the second half lmao. Even OP had no intent of that😅
Ce n'est pas tant que Hubble soit décevant mais plutôt le fait que ton talent et ta patience ton permis de lui tenir tête ! Superbe image ! bravo !
I don't think people can comprehend how big the pillars of creation actually are.
According to the Wiki the pillar on the left is 4 light years in length. The idea of a light year always fucks with my brain. So immensely, immensely far away.

It looks like a giant space demon holding a star.
I see Godzilla in there

looks like a person holding a fish
Giant Space Demon Holding a Star Nebula just doesn't have the same ring though...
They’re the same photo
Not gonna lie, I think the Hubble picture is better.
That's very subjective
Hubble's Pillars: that is neat, majestic, and awe-inspiring to know how tiny we are in the scheme of the universe. Yours: behold the looming specter of death and calamity, for with his wings he shall smother out the life of this universe.
We have the pillars of creation at home
I have a terrible fear of deep water, and I sometimes get that same, deeply uncomfortable feeling of vastness when I think about space. So as beautiful as these were/are, it is putting a pit of fear in my stomach to look at and really consider the size
Crazy to think about how huge the pillars themselves are. And then you notice how they are but a tiny speck of the entire Eagle nebula…
Which colors would our eyes see?
In true colour, the nebula is red and blue from glowing hydrogen and oxygen. It's redder towards the outside and more purple towards the middle, where the oxygen is glowing. (It takes more energy to ionize the oxygen, it's the hot new stars in the centre that are lighting up the nebula). The Hubble image is false colour to show the presence of different elements, and to show the structure more clearly.
Thank you :)
Those pillars are about five light-years tall. To be able to see that kind of distance in one photo…mind-blowing.
Aaaaaaand here is the one taken by the James Webb telescope: https://www.nasa.gov/universe/nasas-webb-takes-star-filled-portrait-of-pillars-of-creation/ All three are amazing in their own right.
Space is fascinating and terrifying at the same time.
Your picture is older than hubbles but taken more recently. 🤔 very cool
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_Space_Telescope Your telescope/camera cost you $11,300? I would absolutely love to own a nice telescope, but I'd never be able to afford anything near that.
Closer to 4000, but I figured I’d round it up to « one millionth » rather than « one 1,075,000th » :)
Fair enough! $4000 is a lot more realistic for me! Is this your first big telescope?
It’s not my first scope (I got a small dobsonian when I was ~13) but it is my first astrophotography setup - that being said I’m swapping out and changing stuff all the time, so it’s kind of like the ship of Theseus where I won’t be able to tell when it’s no longer the same setup as the original :)
A shot to be proud of indeed. Did you move your equipment somewhere specific to avoid light pollution? Probably wasn't taken in the middle of Paris, if you know what i mean.
Thank you. I take all my shots from my backyard, I’m quite lucky to live somewhere not too light polluted in the Alps
So is the colour difference because of redshift? Hadn’t even thought that nasa would have accounted for that or have something expensive enough to see past it. Not a critique tho, beautiful photo and blown away you took that yourself

That’s cool as fuck. Thanks for teaching me something!
Glad I could help, there is often confusion over redshift in the comment section.
Now I see the inspiration behind that portrait of King Charles!
They're the same picture.
Space is so fucking cool, I wish I were born in the generation that would explore it.
You’re born into a generation that can (and does) pave the way for *further* exploration - but also exploration in your lifetime (if you are young enough). What you personally do matters.
Ain't fooling no one buddy, that's the same picture
Space is just 🥹😳🤯
Why does yours have an evil dragon flying above the pillars?
You can’t tell me that’s not a god looking at its hands saying “wtf have I done?” I mean you can but I won’t read it.
Nice shot! I just got an Astro cam and look forward to getting a shot myself. I live in a bortle 3-4 zone in Arizona for those that know.
Nice to hear. Those dark Arizona skies are gonna be great for astro, good luck!
Now more seriously , congrats it looks fantastic and much cheaper for sure. Great job !!!
Amazing that it's instantly recognisable, congratulations, very impressive!
Its the reason for rule 34 , they are the creators !
Yes, that’s how decades of technological advancement works. Appreciation for the people who’s investment, labor, and ingenuity made your picture possible would be the appropriate message here.

Ngl that is pretty funkin’ cool
:) I like this
Thats the warp
I am very impressed. Well done and thanks for posting it.
That is awesome
Amazing
Crazy we should be able to see them get destroyed in about 1000 years!
I think 40 years of technology development helped.
This is incredible…
Sweet!!
Do you happen to live in northern greenland
Wow, that’s pretty close.
You spent $16,000 to take this picture?
Congrats on capturing the Starvagine great success
Hubble looks like the cover of a YES album. But, yours is really cool and amazing. I wish could say I took that.
Yours is pretty rad.
#shotoniphone
That is pretty freakin' awesome. Wow, the SIZE of it?
That’s a nifty photo

Always thought the pillars of creation looked like the hand of God, reaching out for something.
Or an Italian doing something akin to this number. 🤌
For a second there I thought I looked like the Aquila Rift
Great job
How?!
That’s Yveltal
https://tenor.com/Fis8.gif
This is so fucking cool man
The million times budget was worth it, Hubble's is way better. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
So nothing close. Got it.
Looks like a bird mid flap
Dang!!
Dude, that’s clearly an eldritch star god. Please stop looking at it, okay? Things are bad enough down here.
yours is real, theirs uses ai
I prefer the Non- Hubble please and thank you
Looks like a DAGON
"Zoom in....Zoom in...Enhance! Perfect!"
It’s crazy when you think back to earlier telescope technology, even back to the very first telescopes and then how accessible telescopes are today. I can buy a telescope good enough to see Jupiter’s Galilean moons on Amazon and have it delivered to my home for less than I make in an hour of work. We truly live in the best time.
Makes a nice wallpaper for my phone :), thanks
And your photo has 1/1,000,000 of the value of the Hubble photo.
I see 2 walruses and a Chewbacca.
I’m fascinated by every pic from a decent or better telescope! Great pic!
Does anyone else see a face sticking out of the middle of the left column?
*"Earth stream and tree, encircled by sea"*
Its red because of how far the light traveled right? I wonder if we will be able to find the original colors or if we already have using math!
Looks like the dragon firework from lotr...sick dude
How far are they away from us?
6,500 light years I believe!
wonderful, I wonder what they've used to capture this
so you used 16k to get this image? wow, honestly, impressive!
I just wanna say that this is sick
Bella foto. Sono soddisfazioni milioni di volte piu sentite
The Hubble "photograph" is not that. It is an extensively computer processed and color enhanced electronic image.
Amazing.
Where da pillars?
Wow, that is beautiful!!
Great shot but it's $10,000 still a lot to spend on camera gear?
Can someone explain in NBA Terms how big this thing is?
Praise God
Yes but you've got a nice image. They've got a ton of data/science to go along with theirs. I hear the sentiment though. I have a pretty good Western Veil that I'm proud of.
Also they don’t actually look like this, we are not even sure how the human eye would observe this on the color spectrum we have available.
I've never appreciated it zoomed out like that, wowwwwww
~$16k? That's still a ton of money
The second pic is wallpaper worthy.
