For those that might care, this was the famous Hubble shot of the "Pillars of Creation" near the center of the Eagle Nebula.

The shot of the Eagle in post#44 with the amateur scope, shows the same area as taken with the Hubble telescope below. Of course we have considerably less than a billion dollars into our scope/cameras...

That's amazing. What are those structures? What are they made of? Thanks.
