Mystic mountains infrared image
This Near-Infrared Image Shows A Myriad Of Stars Behind The Gaseous Veil Of The Nebula's Background Wall Of Hydrogen, Laced With Dust. The Foreground Pillar Becomes Semi-Transparent Because Infrared Light From The Background Stars Penetrates Much Of The Dust. A Few Stars Inside The Pillar Also Become Visible. Representative Colours Are Assigned To Three Different Infrared Wavelength Ranges.

Within the tempestuous Carina Nebula lies “Mystic Mountain.” This three-light-year-tall cosmic pinnacle, imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope’s Wide Field Camera 3 in 2010, is made up primarily of dust and gas, and exhibits signs of intense star-forming activity. The colours in this composite image correspond to the glow of oxygen (blue), hydrogen and nitrogen (green) and sulphur (red).
