New chilling view of the Pillars of Creation's ominous dust that looks like a ghostly hand reaching out into space 7,000 light years from Earth

 Just in time for Halloween! NASA's James Webb Telescope snaps new chilling view of the Pillars of Creation's ominous dust that looks like a ghostly hand reaching out into space 7,000 light years from Earth

  • NASA's James Webb Space Telescope snapped a new view of the iconic Pillars of Creation nebula
  •  Webb blocked out the starlight to capture just the ominous dust that births thousands and thousands of stars
  • The columns look like  a ghostly hand reaching out into space 7,000 light years from Earth 
  • NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) snapped an eerie image of the Pillars of Creation - the dust filled columns look like a ghostly hand reaching into the depths of space 7,000 light years from Earth.

    The chilling image was taken in mid-infrared light - showing a new view of a familiar cosmic landscape - that blocks out the bright starlight to only capture the flowing, ominous dust.

    This is the first time the world has witnessed how dense some areas of dust are in the Pillars of Creation, which formed more than five million years ago, which was typically seen surrounded by glowing stars.
