Description

A star-ball found 25,000 light years away! I captured the Great Hercules globular cluster after midnight last night using a C14 telescope with ASI294 camera. This ancient cluster of more than 300,000 stars is found on the outskirts of our own Milky Way galaxy. Image is a one-hour stack of a series of three-minute exposures.
