A New Star. The image composite compares an infrared image taken by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope a visible-light picture of the same region (inset). While the infrared view, dubbed Mountains of Creation, reveals towering pillars of dust aglow with the light of embryonic stars (white/yellow), the visible-light view shows dark, barely-visible pillars. The added detail in the Spitzer image reveals a dynamic region in the process of evolving and creating new stellar life (NASA Media Archives). Buy this as a superb wall poster, a canvas print or a framed print.
