10 spectacular images of Carina Nebula shared by NASA

The US space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) frequently shares photos of nebulae and cosmic bodies in space. Let's take a look at some of the stunning pics of the Carina Nebula captured by NASA.

The Carina Nebula is a giant cloud of gas and dust where star birth and death take place. The nebula is located 7,500 light-years away in southern constellation Carina the Keel.

This image of the cosmic cliffs in the Carina Nebula was captured by NASA's James Webb Telescope. The image shows a young star forming region called NGC 3324.

This image of the South Pillar region of the Carina Nebula was captured by the Spitzer Space Telescope of NASA. The image shows the pillars formed by gas and dust in the star-forming region of the nebula.
