<p>In celebration of the 24th
anniversary of the launch of NASA's
Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers
have captured infrared-light images
of a churning region of star birth
6,400 light-years away.</p>
<p>The collection of images reveals a
shadowy, dense knot of gas and dust
sharply contrasted against a
backdrop of brilliant glowing gas in
the Monkey Head Nebula (also known
as NGC 2174 and Sharpless Sh2-252).<br>
</p>
<p>The image demonstrates Hubble's
powerful infrared vision and offers
a tantalizing hint of what
scientists can expect from the
upcoming James Webb Space Telescope.<br>
Observations of NGC 2174 were taken
in February, 2014.</p>
<p>Massive newborn stars near the
center of the nebula (and toward the
right in this image) are blasting
away at dust within the nebula. The
ultraviolet light emitted by these
bright stars helps shape the dust
into giant pillars.</p>
<p>This carving action occurs because
the nebula is mostly composed of
hydrogen gas, which becomes ionized
by the ultraviolet radiation. As the
dust particles are warmed by the
ultraviolet light of the stars, they
heat up and begin to glow at
infrared wavelengths.</p>
<p>The Hubble Space Telescope is a
project of international cooperation
between NASA and the European Space
Agency. NASA's Goddard Space Flight
Center in Greenbelt, Md., manages
the telescope. The Space Telescope
Science Institute (STScI) in
Baltimore conducts Hubble science
operations. STScI is operated for
NASA by the Association of
Universities for Research in
Astronomy, Inc., in Washington.</p>
