===Pillars of Creation===
The Pillars of Creation are a group of three huge [[gas]] pillars found in the Eagle nebula. It was named after an image by the [[Hubble Space Telescope]] in 1995.<ref>[http://www.messier-objects.com/pillars-of-creation/ Pillars of Creation] from messier-objects.com</ref> [[Star]]s contained within the pillars are a strong source of ultraviolet radiation and stellar wind that is slowly blowing the pillars apart. These stars are extremely hot, with temperatures of over 30,000 k, six times hotter that the [[Sun]].
