- A behind the scenes look at producing a scientific visualization of the famous Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula.
The AstroViz Project of NASA's Universe of Learning is creating an exploration into the iconic Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula. This production reel provides a peek into the underlying science, the 2D image processing, and the development of 3D volumetric models of these star-forming wonders using visible and infrared data from the Hubble and Webb Space Telescopes.
Visualization Team: Greg Bacon, Ralf Crawford, Joseph DePasquale, Leah Hustak, Danielle Kirshenblat, Joseph Olmsted, Alyssa Pagan, Frank Summers (STScI), Robert Hurt (Caltech/IPAC)
Science Advisor: Anna McLeod (Durham)
Last scene is incredible
Oh boy what a teaser!!
I've seen some creators screen recording the process of creating something trough a video time lapse, by far this is the biggest flex ever!
How do we know what the rear of the pillars is if we can only see them from the front?
We have some indications of what the back of the pillars look like because the infrared emission seen by Webb sometimes comes from the back side - parts of the pillars are somewhat transparent to the longer wavelengths of infrared light. In other cases, we use scientific extrapolation/intuition and artistic license.
@@hubblespacetelescope Thanks for the explanation :)
Coming Soon no more - the video is out! Watch "The Pillars of Creation and the Interplay of Stars and Dust" ua-cam.com/video/1itvyekUbWU/v-deo.html
I loved this. There are a few great questions here in the comments section which answered. I think it would be interesting with a follow up video addressing those.
Folks, if you want to know more about the Pillars of Creation, at least the Hubble versions, check out this video that compares the 1994 Hubble against the 2014 Hubble against the 2014 infrared Hubble: ua-cam.com/video/JqZ2xtsJRGc/v-deo.html
Amazing material ❤
If these images were taken so many years appart why are the patterns in the nebular identical? Surely it would've changed shape over the years?
Good question. I think they are so large that the changes are not noticeable at that scale. I know Hubble has been able to image changes in some objects but they may have been at different scales.
The pillars stretch about 5 light-years and with the image from Hubble being 7000 pixels that’s about 4 billion miles per pixel, more than our distance to Pluto. I think they could see small changes but not at the scale of the whole image.
There are subtle changes between the 1994 Hubble image, the 2014 Hubble image, and the 2022 Webb image. But, by and large, the pillars (and most other astronomical objects) don't change appreciably on human time scales. As another poster noted, the length scales here are huge, and it takes a long time for changes to propogate across such distances.
Outstanding!
I think we are looking at this nebula from the best angle
Lovely!
Thank you for the huge and wonderful work! 🌹
So cool! Can’t wait!
Excellent! Are you using RC-Astro StarXTerminator to eliminate the stars? Or do you have some proprietary routine to do that? Thanks!
Photoshop Magic Wand?😁
Great works!
Very freaken cool!
The only way I could see the difference was to use
Creater alone knows mysteries of creation
Sri Ramakrishna paramahamsa had a similar experience stating, 'After realizing God, one sees that it is " God Himself " who has become the universe and all living beings. The Divine Mother revealed to me in the Kali temple that it was She who had become everything. 🙏🏻
🎉wow out of this world
PILLARS OF CREATION
That's because they are so large that any movement and growth are imperceptible at this distance and in
only 30 years. When they look again in a thousand years, with telescopes a thousand times better, they'll see a slight change.
I bet you didn't notice the pun in the title at first.
I did😅
A simple bit of wordplay goes a long way.
💥
Why is pillars of creation the only thing given so much importance from webbs photos. Deep fields are the best.
Video goes far too fast. No time to absorb images.
not interesting
What was the song playing with this video? It sounds wonderful
The song was licensed from an online company. We think it really suits the piece well!
@@hubblespacetelescope Ok, but you didn't answer, and I had the same question. Would it be possible to know the song and author, please?
This looks great! Beautiful work!
1:35 are they really that far apart from each other or is that to showcase each segment of the pillar. I always imagined them closely connected.
We worked with an expert on the pillars. The science papers show that there are four separate pieces, as shown in the video. Our expert approved our visualization as being "scientifically reasonable". I'll note that we don't have perfect information, but this presentation is consistent with the current understanding.
i am in no relation with the researchers, but allow me to speculate: you can assume that these are "educated guesses" based on the quality of the spectral information measured - simply put: estimating depth on color and sharpness for each captured "pixel". i am not fully aware of the capabilities of the measurement technology, but in theory, observations from different points on the orbit (around the sun) could allow for depth estimation (as in stereoscopy)
Looks like a Trinity of almighty brhama Vishnu and Mahesh of Hinduism
FANTASTIC making off, hats down!
holy shhhhhhh
Wait, isn’t it supposed to be the Pillars of Creation?
Are they stelagtites or stelagmites 😂🙃🥴🧐
that makes the image make so much sense. its hard to understand the object when all you have is a 2d perspective.
🖖😎👍
P.S. ❤
ждем! 🎉
😲👏

The creation of pillars of Creation... Right.... The problem is that the name "Pillars of Creation" is too religious and thus the name is inappropriate or even anti-scientific.
Stars are being created… it’s a stellar nursery
Wow, you cannot stand even the title!
Understand that you will one day bow before this Creator you now mock and reject. Know that. Repent, while He still grants you the breath to do so.
Psalm 19
"The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."
"it's anti-scientific" depends on what the science discovers or has to discover... aren't you a bit conclusion jumpy regarding the relation between religion and science?
@@JoostH. That might be a nice interpretation indeed.
@@Dm3qXY Relation? Religion is the opposite of science by definition. Please refer to your nearest.... dictionary.
