Eagle Nebula, M16
Another object that I can't reach from my backyard.. taken in the desert of Utah. Never realized those famous pillars would be visible in my small telescope.
from space.com: "The Eagle Nebula is located in the constellation Serpens and covers an area of 70 by 55 light-years. It is home to the iconic Pillars of Creation, made famous by an image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1995.
Parts of the Eagle Nebula are emission nebulas, meaning that the clouds of gas and dust are so hot they produce their own light. Other parts are dark nebulas, which are made of cold gas and are only visible because of the silhouettes they create against the nebula's glowing backdrop."
