'See how they look different in the Hubble visible-light view versus the Webb infrared-light view,' NASA's Frank Summers said.
New 3D visualizations of the famous Pillars of Creation have been created, using images snapped by both NASA's Hubble and James Webb space telescopes.By combining data from the older and new space telescopes, researchers at NASA's Universe of Learning at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore created this detailed 3D video.This marks the most comprehensive and intricate visualization ever made of this spectacular space landmark.
'By flying past and amongst the pillars, viewers experience their three-dimensional structure and see how they look different in the Hubble visible-light view versus the Webb infrared-light view,' principal visualization scientist Frank Summers of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, said in a NASA statement. 'The contrast helps them understand why we have more than one space telescope to observe different aspects of the same object.
