New Views of the Pillars of Creation: Hubble's Universe Unfiltered

New Views of the Pillars of Creation
Presented by Dr. Frank Summers, Space Telescope Science Institute
One of Hubble's most famous images was taken in 1995. The iconic "Pillars of Creation" shows the tall and beautiful gaseous pillar structures that can form inside star-forming regions. Within these dark clouds, stars are being born. Hubble kicked off its 25th anniversary year in 2015 with some images that used its improved cameras to revisit these beautiful pillars. This larger, higher resolution, and expanded wavelength examination uncovered new details, new features, and new perspectives on a classic image.

Hubble press release:
Hubble Goes High Def to Revisit the Iconic 'Pillars of Creation'
hubblesite.org/newscenter/arch...
Show Notes:
-- Most will remember that there was an initial flaw in Hubble's mirror that was corrected in 1993. After that repair mission, it took some time for the public to recognize just how amazing Hubble's views of the universe really were. The 'Pillars of Creation' image, released in November 1995, was a watershed in that regard. The image was shown on television news and reproduced in newspapers and magazines everywhere. The widespread attention helped certify Hubble's status to the public as the pre-eminent observatory of our time.
-- The "teapot" in Sagittarius is not the full constellation. It is a star pattern, called an "asterism," within the larger collection of connected stars that makes up the entire constellation. One can search online to see the full Sagittarius constellation as it depicts the archer. A similar asterism is the Big Dipper, which is a star pattern within the constellation of Ursa Major.
-- The visible and infrared views of astronomical objects are generally similar enough that one can identify common structures between the views. When using other wavelengths, like X-rays or radio waves, it can be very hard to identify how the two different wavelength views correspond. Astronomers must record the exact sky coordinates of an image in order to be able to precisely compare against views by other telescopes and in other wavelengths.
-- In 2005, for Hubble's 15th anniversary, we released an image of another pillar in the Eagle Nebula (hubblesite.org/newscenter/arch.... This pillar has a long, thin profile that earned it the nickname of a "stellar spire." As seen in this contextual image (hubblesite.org/newscenter/arch..., the two pillar regions are near each other in the nebula and both point toward the same group of hot stars.

    Hi, this is Dr Frank Summers. I hope you have enjoyed this video. We are working to produce more of these this year. Please tag me when asking questions and I will try to answer them here, on my social media posts, or on my blog (which I will also try to do more on this year). Thank you for your polite feedback.

    Don't know if your going to see this or not, a lot changes in 4 years. You think all this is amazing, what if I told you that everything you see here isn't what it seems to be. I promise you this isn't some conspiracy theory but more a beautiful masterpiece of what just might be Heaven though im really not sure its actually Heaven although it sure looks beautiful enough to be. However, it could be a whole other real form of life thats all being hidden behind a wall of purposely put smoke and fog. I cant say exactly what life form is here but whatever it is, is gorgeous beyond comprehension. I don't know if you've awakened or not. If not then you are missing out on so much. If you're ever interested in the awake process just look it up here on KZread. Type in...Easy way to the awaken process. If you are awake thats awesome! Either way what I'm saying here is were being lied to. I don't know if this man in the video is oblivious to everything or if he does know but can't say anything. Either way there is so so so much more than meets the eyes. God Bless.

It is sad that an organised society in the 21-st century makes people working for a minimum wage unable to afford a house despite them putting a lot of energy which, surely, is enough for building a house if outside of an organised society. Sad human society, badly organised.

    @@zerge83 I was talking about 8:46, which I found to be about 50-100 times as large (minimum case- maximum case) using pluto's orbit to be 80 au in diameter (Wikipedia), and the entire structure to be 4-5 light-years (from NASA). Even so, 10 times is enormous, especially given that volume scales to the third power, so 10x linearly is 10^3 = 1000x volumetrically. Of course, the boundary of the solar system is ill-defined since gravity doesn't have a hard cut off, so depending on the definition, the solar system can be as big as 6 light-years across if you count the very farthest Oort cloud objects, where our sun's gravity is so weak that it has to fight other stars for the orbits of objects, or as small as ~60 au if you only count planets (going out to Neptune).

    These images are so mind blowing to me. To think that they were taken 19 years apart and that in that long of time, (on an Earthly scale of time that is), that literally nothing has changed. We here on Earth think of expanding gas clouds to be something very fluid and almost instantaneously dissipated, but the enormity of these "Pillars of Creation" is beyond most of our comprehension. Loved this video. Thank you.

    Seeing those pillars with stars that appear absolutely tiny in comparison certainly makes it easier to see how quasars and the like obtain the huge amount of matter they need to form. That is a positively mind blowing amount of "stuff." Those stars appear to be little pin size dots of light. Thank you for all the amazing images.

    No doubt some of your words are correct but this JW device does no actually need to be launched. Government monies do not actually need to produce anything usable. The money is spent, producing positive effects on the economy and tax $ will be generated whether the end product ever actually returns a penny or not. Governments can operate in this manner because they can not actually run out of money (via taxes). -- This applies to every cent spent on this device up until the moment it is turned on. So what if the on-0ff switch fails? Do we take back all the monies spent on it for how long? No.

    At some point they're gonna have to launch the thing because you could triple check every component a thousand times for reliability and the whole telescope could still blow up during launch and that would put us 10 years behind building another one to replace it. It will never be 100 percent certain that it will be reliable. So launch it.

    No doubt some of your words are correct but this JW device does not actually need to be launched. Government monies do not actually need to produce anything usable. The money is spent, producing positive effects on the economy and tax $ will be generated whether the end product ever actually returns a penny or not. Governments can operate in this manner because they can not actually run out of money (via taxes). -- This applies to every cent spent on this device up until the moment it is turned on. So what if the on-0ff switch fails? Do we take back all the monies spent on it for how long? No. Can we reverse all the positive effects on the economy had up to the launch? No.

    Can you tell me why the James Webb telescope is now over 4 years behind schedule which was set to be in orbit in 2014. All of the mirrors were finished late 2014 early 2015 ???? Please do not say because of cost that I do not believe for 1 iota. These pictures are stunning. Thank you for sharing Frank, do you have any information regarding the telescopes that are In space that do have the long wave capabilities.

    Pieter allen Master Blue - The budget and whole project was nixed back around 2011 - it exceeded both its budget & timeline at a time that the US budget was focusing on diminishing war efforts. The project was then restored and the budget was doubled (approx.). As of today, the telescope is still on budget and on the timeline for launch in October 2018.

    The proto-planetary gas clouds are pretty much the creative force behind all star systems. I think what's unique about this one is the stellar wind from that nearby cluster of stars. It's dispersed the gases in such a way that allows us to see what's going on inside. There's probably many just in our galaxy. Orientation is most important. If we were situated "below" it, we'd see something totally different and may not be able to see the pillars at all. So there could be other similar structures that are visible now but we aren't oriented the right way for viewing.

    It has nothing to do with you more than he probably saw that your name was written in the Russian alphabet. He probably plays CS:GO and its a common joke among the players when they see that someone is Russian to say something like that. CS:GO is a multiplayer game and is very popular in Russia so a big part of the player base is Russian, and the first things you usually learn from a language when talking to teenagers is many cuss words, like idi nahui, cyka bliet, kurwa from Polish, puta from Spanish and so on. If you like you can watch some videos from "Life of Boris" and you will understand, mostly the language videos or the country reviews.
