The Eagle Nebula using the HST Pallet ==REV-3==

M16 lies from Earth around 6.000Light ears, is located on the Serpens Cauda Constelationn and it is described as an open cluster with nebulosity,

The star mass of the open cluster is thought to be about 20000 time the solar mass.

The apparent cluster size of 8' which correponds to 14 light years.

The open cluster is emmbedded in a gas cloud from which the cluster formed and the star forming is still going on.

Young hot stars ionizes the gas cloud making it to glow as a H2 region, cataloged as IC4703, which is nicknamed the Eagle Nebula or the Star Queen Nebula.

This region is well known due to the Pillars of Creation, just SE of the open cluster, with an elephant trunks shape. The pillars are regions of dark molecular gas and dust that are being eroded by intense radiation from the stars to their NW. Stars in M-16 are thought to progress in age, from young in NE, around 1 million years, to older, with 3 million years, in SE, possibily because star fromation in this region was progressively triggered by an interaction starting on the south several million years ago with a giante molecular shell created early by suoernovae explosions.

Also the dark filaments can be seen lying on the Ha region.

The target of this Revision was to get a more contrasty image. In addition a better denoise routine has been applied.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
