Fly, Eagles, fly!

Of course, if you intend to reach the Eagle Nebula, the journey will take about 7,000 years, even at the speed of light.

These majestic cosmic structures are known as the “Pillars of Creation” and are located at the center of the Eagle Nebula. Part of the nebula's active star-forming region, these slender pillars harbor newborn stars.

Congratulations to the Philadelphia Eagles on their #SBLIX victory!
