  Yes, this is M16, the Eagle Nebula - also known as the Pillars of Creation, for the famous Hubble image of that name.

  What a great choice for the splash page! Never tire of looking at this, in any view. Visible light vs IR is interesting, too.

  Oh... so the pillars - which are so gigantic in size(but are such a small a part of this image) - are part of a stupendous nursery?
