Carinatågen er et af de største og klareste himmelobjekter, og ESOs VISTA-teleskop på Paranalobservatoriet i Chile har netop optaget et smukt billede af den. Observationer i infrarødt lys gør det muligt for VISTA at kigge ind igennem de varme gasser og det mørke støv, som ellers indhyller tågen for os, og vi ser nu myriader af stjerner; både nyfødte og nogle i de sidste dødskramper.
