Description

I find it unbelieveable that this is a real thing sometimes, a cluster of hundreds of thousands of stars, tightly packed together, held together by gravity alone? It's so odd to me.

Unfortunately dew had built up on the inside half of my corrector, and after that, a residue was left over, that caused these halos. I am very upset since I painstakingly and carefully cleaned the corrector just weeks ago because of the same problem.
