Description

M 4 Is a Globular Star Cluster found in Scorpius. It is one of the nearest globulars to Earth, lying 7,200 light years away. It is 140 light years in diameter.

Captured early in the morning 2am local time. Just a quick capture while I am concentrating on a Galaxy I hope to post soon, after I get more data.
