Star cluster: This 100 million-year-old globular cluster is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way and a birthplace for billions of stars. The cluster is approximately 160,000 light-years away in the constellation Dorado.
In the top left corner of this starry sight, the globular cluster NGC 2031 shines brilliantly in the constellation Mensa in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way.
The image showcases the GAL-CLUS-022058s nebula, which is located in the southern hemisphere constellation of Fornax. The image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope.
NGC 2566: The galaxy filling the frame in this James Webb Space Telescope image is NGC 2566, a spiral galaxy in the constellation Puppis. In this image Webb’s MIRI puts the thick clouds of interstellar dust that suffuse NGC 2566 on display, as well as the galaxy’s compact, bright core.
Blood-soaked eyes: Two galaxies, IC 2163 and NGC 220, appear as if blood is pumping through the top of a flesh-free face. The long, ghastly “stare” of their searing eye-like cores shines out into the supreme cosmic darkness.
Star Factory: NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured G035.20-0.74, a star-forming nebula in the constellation Aquila, the Eagle, known for producing a particular kind of massive star.
Earthrise reimagined: On December 24, 1968, during a live Christmas Eve broadcast from orbit around the Moon, NASA's Apollo 8 astronauts shared a spectacular image of Earth rising on the lunar horizon.
