Am I aloud to say it looks very much like cloud cover that's been colour enhanced? :-X

Yer, only aren't clouds usually horizontal to the ground?  They remind me a bit of dust plumes coming up from say a desert?  Dunno.
The first image on the right in the wikipedia article is just the top part of it that's been rotated to the left, if you look at the fourth image further down you'll see the pillars aren't going 'upwards' at all.

Yes you're right, didn't realize.  Thanks for putting me straight on that!

Maybe from so-called dark matter, I think.  Chances are though that most of it and the stars that formed from it, no longer exists.

Good question!  Personally I have some doubts that this is what we're told it is.

If it isn't, then what is it?  Another question that comes to mind is which came from which?  Did stars come from the dust or did the dust come from the stars? :-\

A bit chicken-and-egg so probably impossible to answer.
