Pillars of Destruction<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>
This image was taken by the MUSE instrument, mounted on ESO\u2019s Very Large Telescope and shows the region R44 within the Carina Nebula, 7500 light-years away. The massive stars within the star formation region slowly destroy the pillars of dust and gas from which they are born. [Larger versions<\/a>]<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>Spectacular new observations of vast pillar-like structures within the Carina Nebula have been made using the MUSE instrument on ESO\u2019s Very Large Telescope. The different pillars analysed by an international team seem to be pillars of destruction \u2014 in contrast to the name of the iconic Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula, which are of similar nature.<\/p>\n
