'The heavens

are telling

the glory of God'
___This photo, taken April 2 by the newly installed Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope, shows the Cone Nebula, a giant pillar of gas and dust that resides in a turbulent star-forming region. This image shows only the upper 2.5 light years of the nebula, a height that equals 23 million roundtrips to the moon. The entire nebula is 7 light years long. It resides 2,500 light years away from Earth in the constellation Monoceros. See a story on the debate over intelligent design inside on page 11.
