Pillars of Creation - James Webb NIRCam Astronomy Badge

A great name badge for astronomers with template text for you to change to give your contact details and area of specialism / interest. The image is a view of The Pillars of Creation taken by the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The pillars are regions where young stars are forming – the bright red orbs. When knots with sufficient mass form within the pillars, they begin to collapse under their own gravity, slowly heat up, and eventually begin shining brightly as stars. The Pillars of Creation are to be found in a small region of the Eagle Nebula and are a favourite among astronomers, young and old. Image credit: NASA and STScI
