False-colour image from NASAs Spitzer Space Telescope shows the formation of stars. Towering pillars of cool gas and dust are illuminated at their tips with light from warm embryonic stars. This inra-red picture shows pillars in the region called W5, in the Cassiopeia constellation 7,000 light-years away and 50 light-years across. The red colour in the Spitzer image represents organic molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These building blocks of life are often found in star-forming clouds of gas and dust.
